DMS first designed and manufactured the 50mm Giant strut in 1990. Originally designed for the Mitsubishi VR4 and Subaru Legacy. Testing and tuning has continued and now has produced DMS's most successful product - the two-way adjustable damping shock absorber. This adjustable shock absorber has ben used in production car motor sports fitted to Mitsubishi Lancer Evolution I to VI, Subaru Impreza, Ford Escort, Suzuki Baleno, Proton, VWJetta, Honda, Toyota, Seat and Nissan cars.
This DMS high performance 50mm shock absorber has one of the largest pistons available in a shock absorber in the world. This gives superior control and more precise tuning due to larger displacement and pressure areas.
The larger the piston area the lower the internal operating pressures and temperatures. This provides higher damping capabilities which are necessary in severe rally or race competition. Compared to conventional shock absorbers the DMS Giant 50mm has over 200% improved accuracy and control.

Pros:
tough as nails, adjustable bump and rebound
Cons:
expensive, requires periodic rebuilds
I use these coilovers on my rally car, and they are certainly up to the task of bouncing down the stage roads as fast as you'd care to go. They cost a *lot*, but are worth the money if you plan to seriously abuse your car on gravel or dirt roads.

Pros:
Rebound and compression independently adjustable
Cons:
"bank"
I put these struts on my street car (with street valving) and have videos of me chasing a new "Carrera" around Thunderhill...I would chase him in the straights and I would pass him in the twisties. The control is excellent for track or street and they still allow you to enjoy cruising on the freeway "without a kidney belt" Cornerweighting and "bump/rebound" adjustment is a MUST and they are rebuildable.
