I have them on my ‘15 and I really like them so far. I’ve done 11k miles since I put them on. They are stiffer than oem but they soften up nicely with large impacts.

Pros: soften up nicely
Cons: stiffer than oem
Vehicle: Volkswagen
Mileage: 17700 km

+1 on the Koni Special Active, very comfortable ride. I kept my 17" wheels and upped the tires to 215/45R17 non-runflats, slightly wider and slightly more sidewall, much less stiff due to it not being runflat.

Pros: very comfortable ride
Cons: slightly wider
Vehicle: MINI

Koni special active (red) make a great difference. Had the yellows; really sharp. But the reds corner flatter and i can take corners faster. Car honestly feels like its way more modern.

Pros: corners flatter, faster corners
Vehicle: MINI

I installed Koni orange shocks (and most importantly new bump stops) last year and absolutely love them. I didn’t want a crazy firm ride, or to mess with adjustable shocks, so they were the best option for me.

Pros: absolutely love them, not crazy firm
Vehicle: Mazda

OEM springs the special active are fantastic. On sports suspension slightly harsh/not perfect dampening and rebound at the frequency of bumps and speed but still really comfortable and firm up well at speed

Pros: really comfortable, firm at speed
Cons: slightly harsh on sports suspension

These seem like great value compared to the non-adjustable Koni Active Select’s I just self-fitted to my MY22 MIC Y ($1250 AUD). Same high speed wallow you mention and mismatch with the stiff springs.

Pros: great value
Cons: high speed wallow
