Can you please give me feedback on koni sport shocks and Bilstein b12's?

Its going to take about 2 weeks for the koni's to come from holland, or i have the bilstein's available immediately.
im not fussed about adjustable ride height because i have eibach pro's on 18" alloys, so my wheels fit nicely in the arch which is all i want.

As the bilsteins are about £150 more i would expect a better ride?

So is it worth spending that extra £150 for the sake of waiting 2 weeks?

I've used both on various cars in the past and I don't think there is much to choose between them. They are both good quality, do the job and last!
 
I put Konis on a Calibra and they were that harsh I immediately got rid and bought Bilsteins. I also but the Bilsteins on my V6 Vectra and it was awesome
 
Have used both on various cars - not the Z though. Konis came as standard on one car and when I swapped to bilstein they were far superior.
 
bilstein it is then :thumbsup: thank you for your input

off topic but does anyone know who 'holds the record' for the most powerful Z4? (i have searched)
i have seen alot with around 400bhp

im hoping some genius built something that would make ferrari owners scratch their heads in confusment as you drive past... then uploaded loads of pictures onto the forum :D
 
There's Z4's fitted with M5 engines & a guy in the US Supercharging a V8 in a Maldives Blue Zed where he's looking at 650BHP... can't find the topic just yet but was recent.

... and to close my vote is Bilsteins, as just put a set of B6's on the rear & in short are very composed - enjoy removing the rear parcel shelf, though wrote up a how to if u struggle
