I had the pro-kit with Koni sports on a MKVI GTI and it was fantastic. Also had Koni Sports and Neuspeed springs on a MK3 Jetta way back in the day. Also fantastic.

Pros: fantastic handling, great adjustability
Vehicle: Volkswagen

Koni yellows and your choice of spring. I run h&r sports and it’s still very daily friendly and comfortable, but is sporty enough to throw into corners with no hesitation.

Pros: daily friendly, comfortable
Vehicle: BMW

I was the 1st person install Koni SA shocks on a NA Miata. They have adaptive valving. Made my 96 handle live a Maserati. Awesome shock for The Miata. Sticks like a Geco!!!! Rides like a dream

Pros: better handling and ride
Vehicle: Mazda

I’m currently running koni yellows. I don’t have experience with any others but these have treated me well with a 2” lowering spring on my daily. I would suggest them for a mid/entry level shock with some level of adjustability

Pros: treated me well, adjustable

I ended up going with Koni FSDs again along with matching Eibach springs. Tirerack still sold them as a matched kit. Ride height looks to be the same, although ride quality seems a bit harsher. I think these springs have a different spring rate than the stock ones, even though most people thought that the factory springs were Eibach. It's not bad, but I definitely feel every bump in the road.

Pros: ride height looks the same
Cons: ride quality a bit harsher

As also mentioned above the rear shocks suck. I got Koni for lifetime warranty and already lost one rear shock after 2.5 yrs.

Pros: lifetime warranty
Cons: rear shocks suck
