Finally getting around to replacing my shocks .
Would this be a good choice for replacing my front shocks ?

Curious I have front Koni's and I can adjust them softer than the previous Bilsteins. Converting the rear Bilsteins Rebel racing to Koni's was a pain. I had to get shorter collars to make everything work. Anyone running Bilsteins in the rear and Koni's in the front? From my experience adjusting oversteer and understeer is easier in the front. It would be easier to adjust this with the front Koni's versus screwing around with the adjustable sway bar at an Autocross.

Shock adjustment and sway bar adjustment accomplish two different things though.
