Re: Adjusting Konis & what KYBs?

[Steve An <stevean@domain.elided>]

KYBs are just not in the same class as Koni or Bilstein, particularly the 
Gas-A-Just, the Miata folks seem to like the 8-way adjustable KYB AGX but 
most claim they only last around 30K miles.

The Bilstein HD are not that great, they are too soft.

Koni Reds are OK on my Giulietta and Duetto, but I love the Yellow Konis on 
the Milano. They are around $90 a piece (www.shox.com), well worth the money.

Shocks are best bang for the bucks, worth every penny.
