Default Koni Sports, full sets are back in stock

Rears had been AWOL and out of stock for more than a few months.... But that is now no longer the case. I've got 'em all back in stock and ready to roll!

Anyone who had rears on order with me, those orders have been filled and are shipping this evening.

Based upon your experience, which do you think is the better strut for Mustang - the Koni Yellows or the Bilstein HD? I've heard a lot of great stuff about both of them. I know the HD's are not adjustable, but they will revalve them at the track for next to nothing.

So Sam, what's your comparative review??? (BTW I'm planning to buy
one or the other set for my 2010 GT this spring from you.) So we will have this conversation anyway!

I sell Bilstein too... but I rarely sell them for two reasons. Reason 1 are Koni Sport, reason 2 are Koni STR.T.

The damping of a STR.T is, as far as I'm concerned, on part with a Bilstein HD and for far less money $420/set shipped. If you want a competent non-adjustable damper that's how I go about it.

If you are going to spend more money, then for only a little more you get into a Koni Sport which offers you adjustment and the ability to tune the feel and response of the car to what you like best.

Who will revalve them at the track for next to nothing? If you revalve Bilstein's one time, and just a pair... you've put yourself up to or over Koni Sport cost and without any kind of warranty at that point vs. the lifetime the Koni's have. And then there is also the small detail of the time to do it, and the much larger one of what do you valve them too? You might find you want stiffer... but how much stiffer????

The ability to have them revalved is no substitution for the ability to quickly adjust.
