| Re: What shocks with Koni sport springs? I have Koni adjustables on 1.5 turns and they work a treat, at this adjustment they still retain comfort but so much better control. Well worth the xtra over other cheap brands, as the saying goes you get what you paid for. |

| Re: What shocks with Koni sport springs? I was told by a couple of tuning companies that the Koni FSD's won't work with lowered springs, so I bought Koni adjustable shocks for my vRS instead & they're bang on. |
