Koni yellows/Fk springs
Vehicle:
Volkswagen Jetta
In my Passat, I found that by just going with the Koni FSD shocks, I got much more neutral handling and better cornering turn-in.
Pros: more neutral handling, better turn-in
Vehicle:
Volkswagen Passat
I\"ve had the high tec springs with koni str.t's for about 6 months & love 'em... wife hates 'em cuz the ride is pretty stiff now, but it lowered it just enough for my likes....
Pros: love 'em, lowered enough
Cons: ride is pretty stiff
Vehicle:
Volkswagen Golf
I've driven the car with the new setup (Koni FSD F&R, Hawk HP+ F&R, ATE PremiumOne rotors F) for about a week now. By now I've gone through most of the places I drive by regularly. My impressions: 2. The Konis are amazing. Ride is definitely firmer, with much better dampening of spring motion. The car feels like it turns flat compared to the stock Sachs. At the same time, bumps and other road irregularities are absorbed much better. Cobblestone streets feel like smooth pavement.
Pros: better dampening, absorbs bumps
I had them install Koni FSD struts and shocks; Hawk HP+ front and rear brake pads; ATE PremiumOne front rotors; and ATE Super Blue brake fluid. In the city, the car brakes exactly the same as before, although pedal modulation seems better. Did I say exactly the same? Almost--now my brakes squeal. Usually not a lot, sometimes quite a bit. It comes mainly from the rear, where I am still running stock (and somewhat worn out) rotors. I tried several 70 mph -> 20 mph hard braking exercises, and the front pads exhibited pretty significant fade after 6 times or so. The stock pads NEVER developed fade, even on multiple tracks days at Watkins Glen. This worries me a bit. I did boil the OEM brake fluid in almost every track event, and I am hoping that the ATE SB will do the trick there. But I am left wondering whether stock pads would have been just a s good (and silent). The suspension is quite nice. On the street, the ride is quite similar to stock, which is a good thing. On potholes, the suspension seems to be able to absorb them better and transmit less jerk to the cabin. When turning or doing slalom, the car is definitely more planted and exhibits less roll/bounce. That said, I was always quite happy with the R32's stock sport suspension--it just felt a bit underdampened, and a bit harsh on pavement defects.
Pros: ride similar to stock, absorbs potholes
Cons: felt a bit underdampened

after a too good to be true deal on a ground control kit and a set of koni yellows, some replacement bits and advice from steve (reflexgti), and the long awaited return to production of the h2sport spindles, the new supsension is all bolted in and maybe barring a few adjustments, buttoned up.
Pros: new suspension bolted in
Seems like a good price for Koni Yellows. What does Koni say about running these with the stock springs? I don't want to drop, but the stock dampers are too slow IMHO...
Pros: good price
Cons: dampers are too slow
Vehicle:
Volkswagen
Koni... they transformed my Mk4 Golf into something that rode and handled better when compared to stock... The ride was stiffer, but the quality was actually better, especially on the highway. A lot of people noticed and commented on how good the car felt.
Pros: rode and handled better
Cons: ride was stiffer
Vehicle:
Volkswagen Golf
Personally I think Koni Reds (better design and build quality, but the same soft ride, with performance gain), are too soft. I've had them on some of my other cars before, and I don't care for them. I've been much happier with the Bilsteins I've installed when compared to the Konis.
Pros: better design, build quality
Cons: too soft
