Honestly I’ve had adjustable shocks, I understand bump and rebound and what it means to have a critically damped suspension. And you know what? Those adjustables have almost always ended up set pretty close to middle of range for the street. If you buy the right shocks for your application to begin with then on a street car the adjustment shouldn’t need to be all the way at one end or the other. And if you’re not changing springs, ride height or alignment then once they’re set they’re not going to need to be readjusted.
Now, if you’re altering your set up for different tracks, or going back and forth between street and track all the time then being able to adjust the shocks makes sense. But for primarily street use they’re not necessary.
I run non-adjustable Hotchkis Fox shocks on my Duster (bought them second hand, probably would have bought adjustables if I was buying new) - and they’ve been awesome. I honestly can’t say I would have changed them even if they were adjustable. High quality shocks should have enough valving and be set up well enough to work on the street right out of the box.
