Shock absorbers Bilstein or KONI

I went with Koni Yellows on my TSX and its a daily driver. It does well over bumpy pavement and over railroad tracks.

I adjusted the rebound (has 2 full turns/720 degrees of adjustability) to a quarter turn from full soft and reused my OEM springs and strut hats. The car rides really well and handles bumps much better after about 100 miles of driving around. It rides firm like a E90 3 series sedan. I do not have complaints about the ride quality and I got to ride over bumpy roads in Dallas and over some railroad tracks over the past few days.

Installed Koni Yellow shocks and really love how it firms up the ride.

That's great but remember that they are very firm for their intended us by designe. B4 is already 10% firmer than stock and has proper rebound damping.

I tried this as one of four combinations of suspension on my 2015 GSW TDI. The B8's and Eibach Pro combo lowered my car about 1 1/2 \" front and rear. The handling was awesome but a bid too firm for the bad roads in my town...I'm getting soft in my old age. I loved the way the car looked.

I have the Koni active shocks on the back, along with a Nuespeed rear sway bar and can definitiely tell the difference.

I run Bilstein 5100s on my 2500. They're a big improvement over stock, but don't expect to get a plush ride

Bilstein 5100's have been the best shock I've ever used on a truck. I've had Fox shocks, even with remote reservoirs... and I'd still take the 5100's.

I ran the FSD shocks on my MKV GLI for about 55k i can tell you that after a while the floating starts to appear... you mostly notice it at about 45mph over smaller bumps...

I wouldn't run Bilsteins myself since they make the ride too hard to my arse.
