Yes they are the CROSS coilovers. Retail you're looking at ~$2000.

Too bad they don't make an XI application, sounds like a great part!

Yeah the ride on these is super smooth and when the KW's were on i had constant popping and clanking and they werent as low as the JICs are now, especially in the rear

the other thing too is that by being able to adjust the height by the bottom, it gives you tons of clearance of the wheels when you run aggressive offsets, which you wont get with the KWs because you adjust them from the springs themselves
