Cheapest place to find Koni yellows
I've searched a few sites, ebay listings etc....
Anyone know a good site where I can get these cheap? Or should I say, cheaper then most sites. Thanks. I'll be running Sportlines this year and I'm sure my KYB GR2's are pretty worn out.

Re: Cheapest place to find Koni yellows
its a popular enough piece, maybe there should be a running sticky with current prices that people have found.
ebay solo performance
668.95 + 21.71 shipping for the whole set
hotpart.com
663.60 + shipping for the whole set

Re: Cheapest place to find Koni yellows
It seems like you can find them for less than when I bought mine now. But I read that the prices were going up.
I don't think that hotpart charges shipping over their list price...at least I don't remember them doing it when I ordered my fronts and mounts.

Re: Cheapest place to find Koni yellows
I seem to recall hearing that people had found really good pricing at Autozone (unless that was for Bilsteins...) I'd say it's worth a phone call either way.
I'll be dead-honest with ya though - my Koni yellows (set at the midpoint setting, both front & rear) are considerably more firm than any stock shocks I've ever ridden on. If your car is a daily driver, there's a decent chance that you'd be at least as happy with the Bilsteins.
(Not trying to steer you away from the Konis, just want you to know beforehand...)

Stiffer valving. More of a performance set.

Re: Cheapest place to find Koni yellows
Why Bilsteins instead of KONIs. The KONIs are adjustable, have better vavling from what I hear, and are cheaper than the good Bilsteins.

Re: Cheapest place to find Koni yellows
FYI, I just ordered the koni yellows from hotpart and got a phone call saying that they were out of stock and didn't know when they would be in stock.

Re: Cheapest place to find Koni yellows
I think I remember finding the Koni Yellows somewhere for like $615 or $617 or something. I just wish I knew where...
A little off topic, but...
Since Koni offers a lifetime warrenty on their shocks/struts, will they only honor it if you buy the shocks/struts through them? I mean for everyone that bought them through hotpart, are they out of luck because hotpart isnt a certified seller or something like that? (not saying hotpart isn't a certified seller, just using them as an example)
