How long will this last?? I just bought your lowering springs, waiting to save up for some Koni's. Should have enough saved by the end of the month, if this will last that long.

Yeah..... that can't happen. But fwiw, I have some SLP Bilstein's coming in too, and they are now down to $399/set if you can't swing Koni's.

I can't say, but I'm pretty sure it's not ending like next week. I have no set end-date. I would recommend ordering sooner vs. later because last time I had a lot of folks just wait until the end, they all rush to order which created a big backorder since we ran out (Koni also ran out). So it's best to avoid the "last minute rush".

Man that is a damn good deal! Now the concern is 4/3's or 4/4's for a street driven car. ALWAYS something to brain storm about

IMO the 4/4 Koni shocks are worth it. You can basically fold down the rear seat to adjust them and takes less than a minute.

Im not doubting that they are great, I just don't know if I would be adjusting them often. Then again I do plan on purchasing some bigger aftermarket wheels.

What do you mean fold the rear seats down? I didn't think there was a way to do it, than again I never tried lol

Too many think about adjustment the wrong way. It's not a matter of if you will adjust them all the time (if you get them where you like them, you won't change them much if at all for a long time). It's about being *ABLE* to get things where you like them best. The less adjustment, or harder it is, the less able or willing you are to spend the time getting to what you like most.

4/4's are much easier to deal with, but beyond that they allow any firmness you want in the rear between full soft and full stiff. 4/3 rears offer you 4 settings, you have to pick among one of the 4 and there are big changes between each. And what if you think you'd prefer to be between two settings? Can't do it on those shocks, you'd need the more infinitely adjustable 4/4's.

4/3's are purely about saving some money vs. 4/4's but still having Koni adjustment and performance.

They come with everything you need to install that isn't part of/come with the car stock, or doesn't otherwise work with the Koni's.

Sam, what about a set of 4/4's with stock springs on a turbocharged M6 '98 f-body? I need new shocks and the car is a cruiser and drag car... no twisties.
