Re: 91 RS shocks

I have put Koni (red) on all four corners. Since they are adjustable, you can decrease the stiffness of the shock. You tend to feel the front suspension stiffness more than the rear...what shocks do you have in the front?

Also,You might also have to reduce spring rate, but I would start with the adjustable shocks. I have a pair of rears for sale that are brand new in the box if you want to try them? Let me know

Re: 91 RS shocks

Hate to say it, but you bought a shock thats as about as good as, well, a old used shock.
Do some searching around on here and see what people recomend. It will cost some bux but you'll be much happier..
