Great amp, runs cool on a 4 ohm load. Has plenty of power. Popcorn Ceiling Houston

Nothing weakness found.

Corners adjustable smooth CHEAP for me. Worth more then I paid for.

Somewat bumpy

Alright well some guy crashed his car and had eibach sportline with koni yellows that had verry low miles. Anyway work extremely well. I have this freeway corner where I always test my car. Before I had this setup I used to take it at 45mph. Now with this I get a lil sketchy because it don't squeek or shake or nothing at any speed I take so far which is 68mph. Ride is a little bumpy but worth it every corner with smoothness when cruising.

Provides excellent cornering

ride is realy rough
car sits way too low..

I have these shocks with Neuspeed yellow springs. To be honest, i love the cornering abilities with the shocks, along with the different siffness settings and ride height adjustments but at any setting i feel that the car is way too low and it is extremely bumpy.

Just as expected if not better. Without a doubt, product definitely allows the car to corner faster and tigher with more control.

Rear shocks are only adjustable when removed from the car. This particular application may have raised my car slightly. I compared side by side to another rav4 4wd and it didn't seem much different. But after being around my car so long with stock suspension, I'm pretty sure it's a little higher. The price is a bit high if you buy it new. It's comparable to other products, but may be on the steeps side if you're a young student trying to modify cars. I only bought it b/c I got a great deal from a great seller on ebay. Otherwise I wouldn't fork out the cash so quickly. But after experiencing what KONI suspension can do, I think I would consider it. I'd actually really love to put KONI's on every new car that I ever buy from here on out. But again, it's a pricy change.

Before buying this product, I was scared. I've read every single one of these reviews (150+) and was concerned about the ride being too rough. Sure it's noticibly rougher, but it also recovers that much quicker! I'm not going to lie; the bumps ARE louder. These struts and shocks basically make the roughness and smoothness more apparent. What I love most about these shocks/struts or another performance shocks/struts (not necessarily KONI), is that there's much less nose dive when the car slows down. Even when stopping the nose dive is minimal. This makes for a smoother ride. It might just be in my mind, but I think the car actually accelerates a bit faster. Since there's less forward and backward tilt, the car responds faster. I always wondered exactly what people meant by shocks/struts making the driver more confident in the turns. No I know first hand. This mod is by far my favorite. Firstly, getting the price I got for these was just plain lucky. Bottom line is if you're afraid of the roughness like I was, don't worry about it. It's adjustable! According to the people at KONI, these struts/shocks are direct replacements (with a little bit of modification) so stock springs should perform okay.

Stock struts/shocks. KONI's are my first aftermarket suspension part and I've fallen in love. I can't wait to get into the car every morning.

Smooth ride and lifetime warranty. Height adjustable.

Can cost a pretty penny... but worth it.

Improved ride quality. Very smooth ride and better handling. One of the height adjustment rings broke on me. I e-mailed Koni and they are sending me 2 new adjustment rings for free. Lifetime warranties kick ass!

Height adjustable Ride adjustable Easy to install Looks great Handles great

Makes you want to buy them for all your other cars....

I must say...the Koni Yellows...are the best shocks on the market for the price. Used them on my '95 Integra, got them for my '99 Lude. Very wide ride-adjustment band and adjustable spring perch allows a variety of ride combinations. Also provides that extra drop you need to close up that annoying gap between tire and wheelwell. Easy to install, depending on your vehicle. But be very patient. I had to remove the ring at the base of my oem shock and transfer it to the Konis so I could mount them to the stock wishbone. Be careful not to warp or damage the ring. I locked mine in a vise and tapped the butt of the oem shock to break it loose. If you're into aesthetics, be careful not to chip paint during the install...but if your like me, who cares...they're KONI YELLOWS!!! I popped them in using the lowest spring-perch clip setting, teamed with Neuspeed Race Springs and ST Sway Bars F/R... Neuspeed front strut tower and Tanabe rear strut tower bar...and the handlin' is sick. Very tight and nimble, but not too rough where ride quality suffers. Plus, before the Konis, my car was about a finger and a half gap (annoying)... now...she's perfect, chilling right above my 18" Volks with no gap and no clearance issues. Ride quality is best when set at about 50% stiff up front and 75% rear. I keep it a little stiffer at the rear cuz of the car being FWD...allows for better cornering and less understeer....I cut a flap in the rear shock tower carpet panel to allow easy access for rear adjustments. This is a very robustly built system... adjustment caps are notched, making it easy to gauge your changes. Spring perch clip is fixed at 4 or 5 settings so you don't have to worry about uneven height adjustment issues like with threaded-bodied coil-over systems which run 2x more in price (but be sure all clips match at all four corners). It's Yellow color is quite aestheticly pleasing... and they look sick from behind... Only negative experience I had was a leak in the right front shock stem...but that was totally due to shipping damage. I shipped it back to Preludeparts, and they valve-tested it. Said it was fine and shipped it back to me...but it is now leaking again....it's ok though, I'll order another one and be back on the road... ...I've owned 2 sets in the past 8yrs...and only one shock had an issue. Not a bad failure rate. If you want a great streetable system... get the Yellows. You won't regret it. Don't fall for high-end flashy coil-over systems unless you are truly going to race your car. Trust me. Keep it simple...your ride will love you for it. It is obvious that this lengthy review was not written in haste. This...is a great system.

great quality, very light, good technical support, clean look, bright yellow looks fantastic on dark colored car

yellow paint easily peels off during installation even if one wears gloves.plastic adjustment caps are a joke - one needs plyers for adjustment. rear shocks have to be removed to adjust (sucks)

great shocks. i keep front adjusted to 50% stiffer and rear to 100% stiffer and feel no need in rear saybar. front relatively hard to install, but not too bad. first used with neuspeed sport springs(1,5 inch), but now in winter i drive with stock springs and it feels fantastic.

ride/handling

You have to completely remove the struts to adjust them.

I recently installed Koni Red struts and H&R OEM Sport springs on my 99 CL. This combination has improved the ride, cornering and decreased the nose dive I used to have under hard braking. This shock/strut combination corrected the handling problems my Acura was suffering from.

Great handling, nice aesthetic due to the drop. Not that much rougher than stock, stiff enough even on soft dampening.

Little pricey but the Koni yellows are supposed to worth the money. Paint chips quite easily on the body of the shock

I find that these shocks are a great improvment over the stock shocks. I have them paired w/neuspeed lowering sport springs and the combo provided me with a drop of a little less than 2 inches. With 18" rims, I find that the drop is perfect though perhaps another .5 inch would have been great but considering that me car will be driven during winter, it's a good drop. The ride is a marked improvement and I drive with more confidence around turns. I have the damper on a soft setting cause I like a smooth ride but I tink I may increase the stiffness because In wan't to see the potential of this combo (shocks, springs). I really prefer the koni yellows over the stock shocks and the price thus far has been worth it.

Good handling

- Bad finish paint - Spring under bracket is supported by ring, not welded to shock body - Twin tube, I think I'll choose Bilstein to replace Koni

I use Koni Sport in set for my car This is a great shock, but after 70.000 km of usage the Front shock becomes noisy. The noise is rattling sound, but the shock works properly
