Default Koni/Beilstein

How much longer until the Koni/Beilstein shocks come out? Which will be better?

I just purchased some 19 inch TE37's and am going to wait for a good shock/spring combo before I lower the car.

What combo would YOU go with? Without "slamming the ride" (no wheel tuck)

Bilstein's are already out in Japan.

Koni's will be out next year, or so they say.

How do people expect the Koni's to perform compared to the JIC's?

The koni's are valved to be a better replacement for the stock sturts, with less compression dampening to kill off the bounce. How much their rebound adjustability can deal with stiffer springs, should anyone really comeout with any, it really debateable. They have not been valved to be in the Jic performance league, not even close. But then again, the Jic's are running 60% stiffer springs than stock. Meaning their valving will likewise be up their to and one the stiff side to say the least.

You can't compare those two. One is a shock and one is a coilover.
