I need new rear shocks for the race car and plan on getting coilover sleeves. Why would one choose bilsteins over konis or vice versa. Car currently has konis that are shot...

I've searched past threads and I've seen people use both. I'm just curious why people choose one over the other.

Just went from new Koni Yellows to new Bilsteins Sports on the back of my dad's 911 and we like the Bilsteins better. FYI the Bilsteins have a lot more compression valving (raised the rear of the car .5") and I have been told have more rebound valving than the Konis on full stiff.
