A arm bump stop options??
I need to install new bump stops on the stock A arms on my car but I just bought a pair of new Koni yellows and was thinking of adding the progressive bump stops that go on the strut itself. Can anyone give me the pros and cons to using both styles? I am running Eibach Pros on my car. Spohn sells the progressive rate ones for $53. Ground control sells them for $25. The stock style can be had for under $15 if you look around and Energy Supension ones that go on the A arm can be had for $14 or so through Amazon. I just need to know which style is preferred and why the heck the Spohn ones are $53!!

Re: A arm bump stop options??
I did some digging and it looks like I will be better off with the Koni shaft mounted stops but they offer a few different kinds. I have Eibach Pros with Koni yellows. Can anyone offer me any advice on which one will work better for me and my application up front?
My choices are the bottom 3 in the following link. I am no suspension expert so I hope someone can give me the footnotes to why Koni offers different styles. I will be using my car as a DD. No road course racing at all with it. I live in New England and the roads around here suck.
