Well, I would think that you have three choices, Koni, Tokico, and KYB. Depends on how much money you want to spend.

Y the Koni adjustables??????????

I have Koni adjustables (also known as Koni yellows), I recommend them. They have adjustable stiffness, which is really great to have. Turned all the way soft, the ride is same as stock, nice and comfortable. And they come with a million mile warranty. Check out www.tirerack.com and www.shox.com for good prices on 'em.

Aye TegSox I looked at www.shox.com and I didn't see the Koni Yellow but I saw Koni Red. Are they the same thing???????

 

[teggy2281]

Also How much did you them for?????

 

[teggy2281]

Also I went to Tirerack.com and is it called the Koni Sport on their site??????

Sorry, I remembered those 2 sites as selling Koni Yellows back when I was shopping around for mine 4 years ago. Both had good prices. Koni yellows and reds are not the same, the red's don't have adjustable stiffness, and I'm pretty sure they don't have different perch setting. I had bought my yellows from Tire Rack, I got them at Tire Rack dealer cost, which was about $120 each. I don't know if Sport's and yellow's are the same.
