I’m running Koni Yellow SA with H&R Sport Springs + E90 drop hats.

Running Ronal LS wheels (15x7.5) with a 5mm spacer in front and 12.5mm spacers out back. Rear fenders are rolled because it rubbed with the spacers.

I love this setup personally - relatively low but still functional and comfortable..ish

Pros: functional and comfortable
Cons: rubbed with spacers
Vehicle: BMW

Koni shocks did the trick on my old Civic (not the same generation as yours), along with disconnecting the sway bars. Left the shocks on full soft with stock springs.

Pros: did the trick
Vehicle: Honda Civic

I’ve been running them for 2 weeks so far on my Mk6, the ride reminds me of my dads Porsche: sporty and mildly stiff but not bone rattling. They say it’s equivalent to the Koni Sport (yellow) on the softest setting. And that’s good bc you won’t need anything stiffer and you’ll never have to adjust/test/adjust with them.

Pros: sporty, mildly stiff, not bone rattling

I had Bilstein Sports + H&R sports on my coupe for a while and switched to Koni Yellow SA. The ride is better IMO and not as harsh.

Pros: better ride, not as harsh
Vehicle: BMW

I picked the car up yesterday after having the Special Actives installed. AMAZING difference in the way the car rides and drives. Gone is the Toyota Avalon feeling, having been replaced by an Audi-like feeling.

Pros: AMAZING difference, Audi-like feeling
Cons: Toyota Avalon feeling

I have Koni oranges paired up with Swift springs. Comfortable enough daily driving and sporty enough for the mountains.

Pros: comfortable daily driving, sporty for mountains
Vehicle: Honda

Koni yellow with gc sleeves and springs ~50% stiffer than stock to balance ride comfort and handling. Drives like a rally car without the sway bars, drives like a sports car with them.

Pros: balanced ride comfort, good handling, drives like rally/sports car
Vehicle: Honda Civic

Installed used OEM AWD Tig springs/shocks Upgraded to Koni Yellow Tig shocks Installed SuperPro control arm bushings/brackets to bring alignment into spec and hopefully help with high speed steering vagueness

Pros: improved alignment, better steering
Cons: handling hit
