All i know is that i do not think that anyone makes aftermarket struts and shocks for our cars yet.

Ohlins is the most expensive stuff out there why would you put that on a cobalt. Just asking.

it may not be a ride height thing. maybe he wants to have the adjustible ride. smooth it out over potholes, but still want to have the sportiness when he wants it. sounds reasonable to me.

My guess would be better handling performance. That would be my guess cause that's what I want adjustables for.

yeah i kinda like the idea of adjustable shock/ struts and regular lowering springs, only because i really don't like coilovers. To much involved in making the characteristics perfect for the track.
