Product Information

KONI Sports are the industry leader for user adjustable damping forces, turning your daily driver into a weekend warrior. KONI Sport's familiar yellow color means superior motion control and adjustability for the discerning driving enthusiast.

  • Adjustable rebound with a knob in most applications
  • Significant handling improvement with good ride quality
  • Perfect for stock OR performance lowering springs, the KONI Sport is designed to perform evenly throughout the entire stroke range and does not have an internal bump stop like comparable Bilsteins.
  • FCP Euro's Volvo catalog manager recommends starting on the default 'softest' setting for the best balance of sport firmness and street handling. Most aggressive drivers with upgraded suspension (springs, bushings) find the sweet spot between a half and a full turn from soft.
Suspension Shock Absorber

If your suspension is feeling "bouncy" or "loose" it can likely be attributed to blown or worn shock absorbers. The purpose of shock absorbers is to dampen the recoil of the coil spring as your travel over dips and bumps in the road.

Suspension Shock Absorber Failure Symptoms
  • Noise over bumps
  • Squeaks
  • Leaks
  • Poor Handling
  • Harsh ride

What is the best adjustment setting for my shocks?

There is no single best adjustment setting for your KONIs because every driver has different preferences for comfort, performance, performance modifications and roads to drive on. For most vehicles, we suggest that new KONIs be installed in the full soft position. (the standard setting right out of the box) to take advantage of the balance of ride comfort and handling designed by the KONI ride development engineers. If the car has performance upgrades (springs, wheel/tire packages, etc.) or the driver wants the car a bit more aggressive, most people find the optimum setting in the 1/2 to one full turn from the full soft range. Over the extended life of the damper or if the driver wants a specific firm handling characteristic, the dampers can be adjusted up higher. Very rarely will KONI ever need to be adjusted to the full firm setting.

What are the best springs to match my KONIs?

One of the great advantages of KONI adjustable shocks is that there is no specific spring for matching optimum performance. Instead you can adjust your KONIs to match your springs. Most performance springs have a higher spring rate than the vehicle's original springs. Since the shock controls the motion of the spring, increased spring rates require more rebound damping for control and that is one of the reasons why KONIs are rebound adjustable (and some are double adjustable). Using higher rate springs with OE or soft shocks will very quickly overcome and wear out the shocks. The KONI adjustment range is typically about 100% (twice as firm at the full firm settings at the full soft setting) to allow for proper damping of OE springs and high rate performance springs.
