Suspension TSW Springs W/ KONI Yellows?
TSW Springs W/ KONI Yellows?
I'm lovin my TSW springs.I've been running them with oem shocks for 4 months now.I'm thinking of adding Koni yellows to the mix(possibly add some camber plates)Anyone out there with this combo???
-thanks

Same setup I run through my head every day. At some point, it'll happen. TSW springs, would want to try their camber plates (when they release them!) and Yellows. I already have a Hotchkis 19mm bar so thats good to go and my wheels are in transit right now.
This is the exact combo I'm running right now. The TSW springs, Koni Yellows and Ireland Engineering Street Adj. Camber Plates. Over all I'm fairly happy with the set up, used the shocks on full soft over the winter and stiffened them up for summer. It handles much better than stock and on full soft the ride is more supple than stock.
What's the holdup?
The last I heard was TSW was waiting on the spacers that go on top of the plates.
So
1. They are still waiting for the spacers
2. The spacers came in, but there was a quality issue with them
3. The spacers came in and are good, but they found a quality issue with some other part of the plate

-only "Fairly Happy"?You give me pause.
The lack of track time my car will see (for now) I think I will go with the fixed camber plates. I do a lot more "canyon carving". Are the Koni Yellows adjustable?
Anyone tell me the diff between getting the Koni yellows and the Koni struts with the springs included?

+1 for the fixed camber plates. though, you may have clearance issues with the spring (oem or tsw), and may have to gently reshape a portion of the reinforcement ribs inside the driver side strut tower.
Either way, as a start you could check out Out Motoring's website. They have some good comentary on several Koni options.

No the Koni's I have seen withthe springs were not the coil overs.. I know the difference in looks. I will have to take a look to see where I saw them. It was probably the sport kit.. So the Koni Yellows on the outmotoring page are the ones everyone talks about having? The ones with the adjuster on top? With that adjustment on top will I still be able to use the IE camber plates?
