I had two sets of the FSDs on my SportWagen with Eibach Pro and really liked them. I had replaced the first set under warranty at less than 40K miles due to failure of both one front and one rear.

Pros: really liked them
Cons: failure at 40K miles
Mileage: 40000 km

These shocks replaced a 40k mile set of Koni yellows, which I always thought were a little stiff for the street though performed well the few times I had them on the track. My setup is what I thought it should have felt like from the factory. Great daily driver with all the control I need blasting the back roads. Doesn't crash over bumps and the damping is about perfect.

Pros: great daily driver, perfect damping
Cons: Koni yellows were stiff
Vehicle: Volkswagen
Mileage: 40000 km

I had a spongy pedal and after a good flush and bleed my pedal is rock solid. I do have a bit of travel before the brakes grab though, almost like 1/2-3/4 of a inch of free play before anything happens. is that about what you are having?

Pros: pedal is rock solid
Cons: bit of travel
Vehicle: Volkswagen
Mileage: 175000 km

I used koni sports on my mk4 and they were awesome. Front and rear adjustable. It takes a couple days of adjusting to get them how you like them.

Pros: awesome performance, front and rear adjustable
Cons: takes days to adjust
Part number: SPORTS

I have the Koni Special Actives with the R wagon springs. I love them. They work as advertised; they're more plush over small and mid-sized bumps, offer much better damping over large bumps, and they stiffen up nicely when pushed in the corners. For a road car I really think these are the best option out there. One thing about them though is that they're over-damped if you're too low. They work great with the R wagon springs, but I'm not sure they'll work well if you're any lower.

Pros: plush over bumps, better damping, stiffen in corners
Cons: over-damped if too low
Part number: SPECIAL ACTIVES

I have the rear yellows. They're great paired with stock springs. Unfortunately they must be removed to adjust.

Pros: great with stock springs
Cons: must be removed to adjust

I went with the Koni Yellow / H&R spring combo on my 330xi. The handling was great (with a beefier rear sway bar) and the ride was VERY firm. I think the drop *amount* was perfect though.

Pros: great handling
Cons: ride was VERY firm
Vehicle: BMW

Those were just replaced with koni yellows and neuspeed sports. I like the ride height with these. I have used these same springs in the past with boge turbogas dampers. The konis certainly ride better and I hope last much longer.

Pros: better ride, good height
Vehicle: Volkswagen

Koni Sports on full soft aren't bad. I had them paired with DG springs and recently went back to OEM. I was really dissapointed. The small fraction of comfort I regained did not make up for the loss of performance or loss of aesthetics. The car actually rode smoother with the DG/Koni set up.

Pros: car rode smoother
Cons: loss of performance
