Koni Red

Hi,

My 00 Sir came with Koni Red's (Specials). What is the maximum spring rate I can run with these?

If anyone has experience with these shocks, please let me know

Thanks

Any bouncing? Did you have it set on stiff with the H&R?

Thanks

what spring set are you looking to use, and how much do you want to lower it?

i would say 300# is about the max you would want to go with the reds... and i wouldn't lower on them more than 1.5".

I approuved for the spring rate and the drop

not bouncy at all, shock ajustement made before installation, near max position of stiffness.
