I’m currently running koni yellows. I don’t have experience with any others but these have treated me well with a 2” lowering spring on my daily. I would suggest them for a mid/entry level shock with some level of adjustability
I had Koni yellows and loved them. Lifetime warranty too.
If you have a small budget HR sports and Konis are far better than coilovers on the low end. You won’t be super low busy it will handle and ride nice.
On the road, these Koni’s ride amazingly well. They compress and rebound faster than the stock dampers. Subjectively, this helps soak up road imperfections, but returns the tire to the road surface more quickly. This helps eliminate head toss and vibration through the chassis. Additionally, the FSD technology allows for softer compression under high frequency (large/harsh) impacts. This nets in a smooth ride over rough road conditions, but the composed and sporty handling is not compromised either. The ride feels significantly more premium.
I did the Konis with the BMR SP009 springs, and while firm, the ride is comfortable and compliant.
Koni yellow shocks and struts, neuspeed lowering springs, and GLI front and rear discs w/ECS braided lines... the car rides and drives beautifully now!
Koni Heavy Track Raid but just be sat down when you look at the price
On our 2014 Mini Cooper S Roadster we installed these Koni’s just a couple of months ago. Ride is much smoother without loosing any steering feel. Speed bumps are much less of a problem now.
Had one, an 850 Turbo wagon. Even with fancy Koni FSD shocks added, the thing still rode like a garbage truck and spirited cornering was a myth.. and still I loved that damn wagon.
Rock Auto had Monroe shocks & struts for $12 & $8/ea for it, so I bought new. Turns out that's what came out of the car and his weren't too bad but let's face it, they're garbage.
