It adjusts Bump and Rebound.

Clockwise makes it harder, anti-clockwise will soften the shocks. From full hardest, you have 16 clicks to full softest.

Basically: the stiffness of the coil-overs.

so will anti clockwise make them less rough ? thanks guys . ps they're not coilovers if that makes any difference

just a tip for anyone fitting tein shocks. Adjust them as far as you can anti-clockwise on the top adjustment. it makes a huge difference in the smoothness of the ride. and if you dont adjust the rears first you will either have to pull them out again ( they have a cap on them so you cant just do it) or do as i did and drill a hole in the top cap so you can get an allen key in to adjust them
