Koni Yellow with Stock XI Springs

jwebb335xi · 02-21-2016, 04:08 PM

Hey guys,

I'm trying to nail down my suspension plan and have asked several questions already with some great comments. I hope to swap back to summer tires in the next 4-6 weeks. Hence, I'd like to make some decisions shortly.

I'm narrowing in on Bilstein or Koni and planning either stock or Dinan Springs.

I'm curious if anyone has owned/driven an XI with Stock Springs and Koni Yellow adjustable struts/shocks?

Any comments you have would be much appreciated.

For rough roads with potentially big potholes, Billies all the way. They do much better with large impacts vs. the Konis. More road feel on the small stuff, not not rough at all. Cheaper too.
