I'm shopping for rear shocks for my 1996 855T. A couple of questions:

1) Is there any difference in ride between the Bilstein monotube (heavy duty) and twintube (touring class) struts?

2) Are Koni struts ajustable to be softer than the Bilsteins?

I realize that my springs are responsible for much of the ride of the car, but I would appreciate any suggestions on choice of struts (biased more towards ride than handling -- my wife and kids use the wagon).

Thanks,
Eric
