    Cheapest, reputable place to buy Koni SA's?

    I'm looking for the cheapest place to buy Koni SA's from, but I also want a place with a good track record of service.

    So far Tirerack has them for $159 each front and $110 each rear. Anyone know of a better deal from a good place?

      eap4parts.com, above link forgot the 'p'. Also check shox.com as I saw the complete set for $520 shipped.

          I got mine from shox. Wasn't that bad in terms of price, and they were very nice to deal with.
          The BMW 318 is back. With a vengeance.

              Make sure that you are getting the rear shocks that are adjustable from the top (without having to remove the whole shock to adjust). I know Ground Control sells them, but I don't know who else.

                  And pay shipping on something as heavy as shocks from Germany? No thanks! :D

                    Got mine for around 250 before shipping. Shipping was about 30 EUR. Still not interested?

                        Do I need these in order to have GC? I didn't buy my Koni's through GC...

                            Konis at GC

                            GC has the complete set of Konis available at a modest discount right now. This includes the top adjustable rear shocks. It's worth it.
                            Prices are definitely going UP with the US$ sinking like a rock.

                              I got two different part numbers form Shox.com and eap4parts.com. The shocks that eap4parts has listed are rebound and compression adjustable. SA's are only rebound adjustable. So are the shocks that eap4parts selling DA's? Thanks guys for any help.
