They are dropzones, but adjustable?
those are the dz coil overs .. ive had a few sets of those .. Ive never bought them myself .. Ive only gotten them with cars that Ive bought .. and every time the ride is horrid .. adjusting them is a nightmare .. the sleeves are VERY weak/thin/cheap .. If you want a slightly lower ride than the cheaper springs will give you they may help you out ..

But to me they arent worth the trouble .. You have to cut your struts .. and i had a horrible time trying to get them all to the same height ... since they are all the same springs on them .. the rear doesnt sit as low due to the fact that there isnt an engine there ..

Springs are easier to work with .. easier to change .. and you dont have to destroy your struts to use them .. AND ... they last longer ..

If you REALY REALLY REALLY want coil overs .. the only really good way to go is to find a package where the coil over assembly is part of the actualy strut .. and they have the adjustable camber plates .. I think the Tien's and Ksport's are like this and Ive seen more .. but I forget the names and I dont have tthe time to search for it at the moment .. But .. THey are EXPENSIVE !!! So your paying dearly for the extra inch or so in drop ..

So to me its always about cost vs. reward .. L .. and an extra inch or so in adjustability .. isnt worth the $$ ..
