Difference between Shocks & struts

[WhiteDevil69]

What is the main difference between the Tokico Hi Performance and the Tokico Ilumina 5-way adjustable S & S's? I know the basics, but I am trying to justify spending the difference for my needs. I defintily want them to make a difference as far as drag racing, but seeing as I go about 3-6 times a year, if it isn't gonna make a drastic change then maybe the hi pro's are for me.

I think they're both shocks but a strut is a different type?
I dunno
I never known either :\

Your asking two different questions there!
The diff between shocks and struts is that the shocks are on the back and struts are on the front suspension.

The diff between adjustables and non-adjustables is one has a single setting, and the others can be adjusted for firmer or softer ride.

If your worried about drag racing, you need a totaly different setup.

If your only planning on racing a few times a year, get the adjustables and play with the settings till you get the best bite and weight transfer!

lol, yah worded it wrong, but i meant difference between THESE shocks and struts. anyways, I guess I was curious to see if there was a big difference in the hi pros and the best drag setting on the adjustable as far as track times are concerned.
