Question differences b/tw GR2's and AGX's?

Can anyone give me the differences between the two of these. I'll be changing out my suspension soon and am looking at either of these two struts. suggestions for springs and compression rates would be appreciated.

thanks,
Brian

The AGX's are externally adjustable. 4 ways up front, and 8 ways in back. They can usually hold a pretty good drop, whether it be springs or coilover sleeves. I hear nothing but good things about them

The GR-2's are not adjustable, and I hear they are slightly stiffer than just another 'ol stock replacement strut. I hear they can hold a slight drop, but with soft spring rates. Such as that of Eibach springs.

It's all in what you look for. I hear a lot of people putting stiff spring rates on the GR-2's and they hold up fine for the most part. Also, the GR-2's are MUCH cheaper than the AGX's, around half the cost I believe.

Thanks for the breakdown... any advice on spring rates? I heard like 300lbs up front and 250lbs. in the rear... suggestions or recommendations appreciated. Thanks Brian
