We pay the double amount in Europa and think they are all worth it so I´ll bet you gonna like them. Play with the settings a lot and get use to them.

You did the right thing man. Come back when they've been installed and answer your own question.

Trust me its good money spent and pretty cheap if you ask me. You gotta dish out around 1500 or more to get good struts for my STI

i have never rode in a car with koni's, but i installed Kyb AGX's and lt1 prokit last weekend, and it is 100x better than stock, so i can image the Koni's are great!
