Koni / Strano

How is the ride? Any more pictures of cars with this setup? I have seen very few pic's of this setup. Is the ride stiff, hard, comfortable, plush, ??? Man I believe these are the right setup but $ and no way to compare makes it a hard deal for me.

When I had my 05 STI on stock suspension, I would spring toward my Camaro with this setup to escape the horrible ride quality of my STI.

Over more smooth bumps or low frequency bumps this combo does well to keep your brain from moving along a vertical axis. Most cars you can't say that about. Most minor/moderate bumps the combo rides over it very well. Over any really rough roads if you want good ride quality then you should get a truck or a Crown Vic.

The handling and feel of the car is amazing compared to stock.
