I would imagine you could set these up and them to work. To me rebound damping adjustment is what I am really envious of. Way back when I put Bilstien PSS9s on and while they are great you can in certain cases get "lurch" on rebound after a heavy compression. There is no way to increase rebound damping to counter act this. You are stuck with an increase or decrease in both of them at once

Jaykay, several of the lower to mid end coilovers have separate adjustments for compression and rebound.

However, these are supposed to work within certain travel range, for this reason (KW-V3's for example, according to their installation instructions), they have a Minimum height, where the car cannot be set higher in order to protect the internal components, for this reason I added an extra spacer to the top of the spring, to raise the front end of the car without exceeding the maximum height (to minimize scrapping the front...)
