The Konis don't have internal bump stops....reuse your OEM ones and trim them (if you wish), although I believe the OEM ones are plenty short already

Yes, reuse the OEM rubber isolator


Thanks! I'll reuse the stocks as is.

Just installed Konis with DG springs and they are a huge improvement running full soft. Will adjust damping after getting a feel for them.

Over what, OE? How much lowering did you see with the DGs and Konis?

Over OEM. I think the setup is still settling a bit but about .75" to 1" drop. I didn't measure prior. No reverse rake so far. Better traction and flatter turning for sure.

Eibach US are progressive and will feel different than DGs. Eibach Euros are linear and should feel similar to DGs. That said I can't personally speak to either of these combos, but am interested as well.

Ordered a set of Konis from Tunersports. Thanks for the heads up!

Also order Euro spec Eibach linear springs from Amazon.uk.

Won't be able to install until April, going on a trip to Colorado.
