Are the RS9000x equivalents adjustable? How do they compare $ wise?

Not quite as good as koni's, but pretty close.
But I must qualify that in that I used to have koni's on the suzi which was highly modified for off-road racing & use the pro-comps on the gq which is stock standard.
And I live with the fashion police, so brand names are everything!
If we can put one man on the moon, why can't we put them all there!!

While on topic, does anyone have lengths and/or part number specs on ProComp shocks?

Also, are these generic valving or are they tailored to a particular vehicle/weight?

Cheers.

What about rust issues?
Some LR mates in UK rant about poor croming (so it seems)

I ask as a full set of +2" 9K is offered here @245 Euros,
roughly half than OME.

There's also the slight feeling Pro-Comp +2" could be a bit more than OME +2"...?
:?:
