Reds are adjustable, not nearly as easily as yellows though. You need to compress the shock and turn the head to adjust. I have reds in front and yellow in back.

I definately do not suggest reds for anyone who doesn't have fun taking off their suspension. It's not a big deal to me and I just needed something to replace my blown yellows. For $154 for a front set, it's not too bad. But if i'd do it again, I'd just get yellows...

I've only had to take them off once, now I'm totally happy with them on my gc's.

Eh, I bought them used with the gc's. The previous owner totally dropped the car and caused one to blow bad; it won't even uncompress by itself.

yellows are more stiffer than the reds period.

i head that koni reds are mean to be sort of a replace ment for stock shocks, and the yellows are actually designed for perfomance. Correct me if I am wrong.

i think yellows provide more rebound damping than reds.

it boggles my mind why people buy used dampers. i guess the koni warranty isnt transferrable? and i assume youre gonna put yellows back in the front?
