Are Koni's worth the money?

Are the adjustable Red Koni shocks worth the money? I'd like to tune the shocks for my lowered GTA which rides way to rough in the rear for my liking. Any other shocks out their on the market that are superior to Koni's for shock absorbtion, not looking for super-stiff racetrack shocks.

In a word -- YES.

They are one of the very best replacement shocks on the market. You can't go wrong with KONI.

if you don't like a rough ride, stay away from the yellows. I have the red adjustables and I like them a lot.
