Shock absorbers KONI or Sachs

KONI Shock absorbers

Definitely recommend the koni yellows. They’re adjustable but like mentioned before you have to cut the oem front strut to install them. They’re actually an insert but the rears are a simple drop in. Forgot to add they also come with a lifetime warranty as long as you keep the receipt. Had mine for 6 years and one of the drivers blew out and I sent it back and they replaced it free of charge just had to pay to ship it to them but return shipping was free.

Pros: adjustable, lifetime warranty, free replacement
Cons: requires cutting OEM strut, one blew out
Vehicle: Honda Civic

Bought some Koni Special Active s truts and shocks (hoping to get softer-than-stock ride on all the high-frequency cracks and potholes) and also looking to replace all the coil springs.

Pros: softer-than-stock ride
Vehicle: Volkswagen New Beetle

I had Koni adjustable yellows on mine. It was great. I could dial softer for better ride then stiffen it up for fun.

Pros: better ride, stiffen for fun
Vehicle: Honda

Koni FSD Reds. They self adjust for the road conditions. I’ve been running them in my Mazda for a year now, and I love them! Soft and pliable for regular driving, stiff for spirited driving.

Pros: soft, pliable, stiff
Vehicle: Mazda

I fitted my 2020 Jimny with Koni Heavy Track shock absorbers from OzJimny. This mod has substantially reduced body roll on corners, it's tighter onroad and less susceptible to wind on the highway.

Pros: reduced body roll, tighter onroad
Cons: not cheap
Vehicle: Suzuki Jimny

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

I installed them with the ECS 23mm bar. In retrospect I can't justify the additional price over say a Bilstein B6 (I installed those on my previous Jetta). I thought they would be smoother/more expensive riding than the Bilsteins, but you can still pick up every little expansion joint and imperfection in the road....unless that's what you are going for.

Pros: improves cornering
Cons: feel every imperfection

Those Koni's rusted out quickly on an old integra I had. Seemed cheap out of the box. Have had several Bilstein setups. Never an issue.

Pros: never an issue (Bilstein)
Cons: rusted out quickly (Koni)
