Default Koni Shocks?

Guys,I installed my Fr koni shocks.Big improvement over the tokico blues.Alot stiffer,smoother,and stable around hard turns.The only thing its on the highest perch but the car has dropped a little lower.Anybody notice after market shocks dropping the car a little lower?And again its on the right perch.

Konis drop the car ~.5" alone.

thanks for the post man, im thinking of getting some koni yellows myself, i have tokico blues right now and they are chit. i think the right rear is blown sicne the tires rub when turning. tokico blues suck

Where did you get your shocks at ? and should i replace all four even if the tokicos in front arent giving me problems?

It depends,I would suggest all four if you have the $$.My springs drop the car 2.0 and 1.75,since the konis were installed the front went even lower.And the Konis are on the high perch.Not to mention the front feels solid as a rock and the rear is a little bouncy.

I have never heard that before. Next time I have the front end of my car off the ground, I'll compare one of my stock shocks to the Koni.

I'm skeptical, that's why I'm going to compare mine to my stockies next time I'm at home.
