My 2013 B7 SEL Premium on H&R Sport Springs and Koni Yellow SPORTS on Audi S7 20" reps. The perfect setup IMO.
Pros: perfect setup
Vehicle:
Volkswagen Passat B7
Owner reviews for shock absorbers
Manufacturers
Comparisons
Rancho shocks are for off-road style ride. Will absorb heavy impacts and be stiff on the pavement.
Pros: absorb heavy impacts
Cons: stiff on the pavement
Koni Sports :thumbup:
The R also still had factory shocks and also needed to be replaced, so I went with Bilstein HD shocks all around. The HD's had awesome reviews and were cheaper than the Koni FSD shocks.
Pros: awesome reviews, cheaper price
Vehicle:
Volkswagen
I never ran the vwr or the neuspeed but I did ran koni yellow on my mk4 and I liked them alot.
Pros: liked them alot
Vehicle:
Volkswagen Golf
As an FYI, my car is lowered on VWR (almost twice the drop of driver gear) and has Bilstein B8 shocks as well, no other mods aside from the. I had zero problems with a Hunter drive-on alignment rack, and my tech was able to set the alignment to proper spec w/o issue. Car drives great.
Pros: Car drives great
I think it is very likely that your low front end is caused by the wrong shocks being installed for the heavy W8 engine.
Cons: low front end
Vehicle:
Volkswagen Passat
I put the Excel-G's on my girlfriend's Trailblazer last year. They're better than the worn-out OEM suspension, and they were really cheap.
Pros: better than worn-out OEM
Vehicle:
Chevrolet TrailBlazer
Koni Sports on full soft aren't bad. I had them paired with DG springs and recently went back to OEM. I was really dissapointed. The small fraction of comfort I regained did not make up for the loss of performance or loss of aesthetics. The car actually rode smoother with the DG/Koni set up.
Pros: car rode smoother
Cons: loss of performance
As also mentioned above the rear shocks suck. I got Koni for lifetime warranty and already lost one rear shock after 2.5 yrs.
Pros: lifetime warranty
Cons: rear shocks suck
Vehicle:
Mazda 5
