    Koni 8610 vs 8611

    So, I am looking to upgrade my inserts and wanted to check if anybogy here is running koni race shocks.

    What springs are you using them with, how do you like them, experience, price paid, problems installing etc ?

    Thanks.

    I have used 8611's in another application (not BMW) w/ great success.

    Here's a shock dyno plot for you for them.

      THANK YOU sir. Now, if anyone had more of these for the stock shocks etc, we'd be getting somewhere.

        Should have pricing on the 8610s this week through a buddy of mine who works with GC. Hopefully a discount hehe

          Those look like they lack a little low speed response, especially rebound. BUT damn are they consistent. No choppy force value plots like I've seen with other shocks....


          I WISH SHOCKTEK was still in business.
