Shock absorbers KONI or OLD MAN EMU

I've had mine on for a month now, in my opinion the ride is very firm...but not bouncy. Exactly what I wanted. The ride height is perfect, it's obvious that it is lowered (two fingers from tire to wheel arch), but still daily drivable.

I replaced them with Koni SRT.T with H&R Springs for the same money.... moral of the story... if you're going to buy coils, dont cheap out.

Personally I think Koni's are a better choice for street/everyday driving ( softer and less jarring over road imperfections).

I have Koni red's in my MK4 at stock ride height, I think the ride is nice just a bit firmer then stock sport suspension.

I'm running DG springs with Koni Yellows and love the setup.

Koni shocks are the best you can get without spending 3.5k on a set of racing coil-overs. I have them, yes they are that good

I'm running Koni STR.T's with FRPP K springs on my mustang and have been happy with them overall - still do wish I spent a little more on the adjustable's but for the price I can't really say anything bad.

I don't know if it will be the same for the Mustang, but on my GTI I have Koni STrt shocks and they certainly are not OEM+, they are about as stiff as the Koni yellows on the 3rd click up from the softest, they make for a rough ride combined with stiffer springs like the H&R race springs I run. As far as how they have held up they have been on there for about and year including one Upstate New York winter and they still perform the same, They have begun to make a squeaking noise over harsh bumps and I've noticed a little seepage at the top but the housings have next to no rust, no complaints.

I have installed the shocks/springs for month and have decided to sell the vehicle due to new family member arriving soon. These transformed the car. Really nice set up. Smooth ride and handles really nice. Sticks to the highway very well.

At 100,000km I did Koni STR.T shocks, Eibach springs and a Progress rear sway bar. It's a riot to drive with decent tires now however I'm not overly impressed with the Konis, they don't have the best small-bump feel but the car feels ridiculously planted 100% of the time and stays flat through corners.
