What would you rather have. vogtland+koni or vogtland+bilstein sport?

[ptownTSI]

So would you rather have the vogtland/koni kit for $612 shipped (i'm not sure if i'm a fan of the adjustables, i think the koni's that come with the kit arent the same koni's yellows that you can get for 500 on ebay)

or Vogtland+ bilstein sports for $580 (free shipping)

The KONI shocks which come with the Vogtland suspension kits are standard KONI Sport Adjustable shocks. Same KONI's you can buy from any KONI dealer. Fronts and rear are rebound damping adjust shocks.

We have these kits in stock and are a great setup.

Koni makes a great off the shelf shock.

Ive never had any experience with Konis but Bilstein puts out a good product. They are pretty firm though.

what's the warranty for each? I think bilsteins have a life time one?

[VAPORBLADE]

I can only tell you the Bilstein sports that I had on my 325e were fantastic! :)

konis are going to be a bit more streetable compared to bilsteins, konis are more road going shocks while bilsteins are more track oriented. From what i heard bilsteins lack rebound department. I have konis btw and theyr'e wonderful

what's the warranty for each? I think bilsteins have a life time one?

Both feature lifetime warranties to the original purchaser. Both have excellent service with huge warehouse inventories in the US. KONI is in KY, and Bilstein is in CA.

are the koni's are only adjustable if you take them out and make the adjustments or can they be done on the vehicle? I'm almost thinking i'd rather have the bilsteins if they are stiffer.

[tonytony]

you can adjust the front on the konis with them in the car, for the rear all you do is jack up the rear and disconnect the shock from the trailing arm and twist.

KONIS!!! why would you not want adjustable shocks. i had bilsteins before and hated them. billy sports paired with shit eibachs was a harsher ride than my 440/625 set up with konis.

[E-rich]

and the new adjustable konis are top adjustable in the rear.

[E-rich]
