Koni.... Who has?

[Matt_Clio172]

As some may know I am after a suspension kit consisting of springs and shocks. I have been recommended Koni by my local Carnoisseur dealer and said they go very well with the 172. Who here has Koni suspension and shocks? and what are they like?

I have koni TA's combined with apex -40 springs, on the hardest setting it would knock your fillings out but with a bit of tweakage I now have it to the point where it rides ok, maybe a little harsh/crashy over the rough stuff but on decent surfaces it handles great with very little body roll. Ideally I reckon combined with eibach springs it would be superb but I just wanted that few more mm of a drop.
ps if using the apex springs you will need camber correction bolts as mine was showing huuuuuge neg camber until I fitted them.

Thanks for the info What sort of setting do you have it on now. I would love a set of coilovers. They are expensive but I think from what I have heard it is worth paying the extra for.

I've got koni adjustables with standard springs on my Mk1 and I have to say I've been very impressed with them.
