I have a R53 and i already brought the eibach springs kit, the thing is that i need a new suspension and i was thinking on koni, but i heard some strange rumors about lowering koni suspension.

The question is wich one its better or correct to get lowered with my new eibach's, fsd or yellows?

Thanks everyone for your help!

 

Yellows. You shouldn't run lowering springs with FSD shocks from what i've heard.

 

FSD's will be fine with a moderate drop (+/- ½")

Yellows if more than that.

 

I always thought it was the other way around. Learn something new every day.

Looked at my sig - got it right there. Old age is a *****

 

Thanks both for ur help! A was allways thinking on fsd because the quality. But I will buy yellows because the eibach drop is a lot more than 1''. Are yellows as good than fsd? l will buy it this week, so u know I will spend more than 600 I want to do the correct deal! Thanks a los for the help!

 

I just dealt with this today. I called the tech support guys at Koni today and asked this same question. They told me that the FSD's are not designed to work with moderate drops. I'm running H&R springs and the FSD's would not do well. They recommended the Koni Sport shocks.

 

Correct NO lowering springs with FSD's.

The Koni Yellows will work pretty well with your eibach springs.

 

Thanks a lot everyone for helping me. i will buy yellows in 2 weeks then i will post some pics to show mi new baby with his new yellows and eibach sus.

Thanks again! and by the way, excellent forum!
