How could I give you advise Oh wise one.

Hi

I have had Koni's before & they work great.
Only thing I would not recommend is to have the shocks on the hardest setting - very hard and stiff regardless of springs you have.

Like most of us I'm sure - these shocks are a great all rounder for DD & occasional spirited track use. Koni can recommend springs as a guide.

Cheers

I have them on my 2013, did it for autocross. Koni yellows with an eibach front bar made a good bit of difference. No height change, less body roll but the car still nose dives even on full stiff. I run full stiff front and 30% stuff rear.

If you're going to be in there for the Koni's may as well get the Swifts :)

Stock springs suck, in my opinion they bounce around the car too much especially on Chicago roads. Usually it's the other way around but my ride is much more compliant after installing swifts. Would never go back to stock.

That said, I see no issue with using the Konis and stock springs. You may have a very slight drop in height.

I went the same exact route and it puts the Z at the perfect height, with the perfect stiffness and cornering is much improved, especially since mine are paired with eibach sways.

I'm looking into Koni for my infiniti, the ride is way to bouncy for me.
