Koni Yellow/Maxspeed coilovers

[rgirard413]

Anyone using this combo, and if so, any feedback about them?

If your buying KOni..don't get Maxspeed....I here alot of bad things from cheap coilovers..not even that I had 2 buddies with cheap coilovers and the collars broke....If you getting Koni get some ground controls or something like that...

you won't die...wellllll...no no you wont die...from what I have seen...not good in my opinion...but I already said that so.....

im just inquiring because i hear maxspeed and koni fit together good. I have weapon-r now, but there crap, and they dont even going 4', the collar is like 2' long and all tore up. What i dont understand is how the coilover stays on the strut if you dont use a perch or something. I dont see how orings and allen screws can support a 2500+lb car.

I have maxspeed they are fine. No problems cept a lil rattle from the left rear that I have to fix. They are stiff and you will notice the difference, but I do not think that they are bad at all. And that's on stock suspension. I'm lowered about 1.75-2. Plan on goin a lil more but I need to find the correct camber kit first.

PS if you bought them from ebay most likely did not come with the correct install directions. Pm me if you need help. I did but I have it down pretty well now. Chris

I have them and they work fine. They are stiff, though; I ended up replacing the rear springs with a lower spring rate. I'm using them with KYB AGX's.

j/w what springs did you use in the rear? I could use something softer too if there is a way to trade out the rear springs or at least make some money back on the ones I already have somehow.

you can use any 2.5" inner diameter spring. I'm using QA1 350lb./inch, 7inch long springs from Summit Racing.
