That is funny, that is exactly the reverse of what I have experienced in other suspension set ups. I have always found the Koni's to be harsher and the Bilsteins to ride a little better. That was a long time ago though. They must have switched places. I am 90% or more a paved road kind of guy so I don't really worry about blowing them but ride quality would be nice for sure. thanks, Craig the Gorge VW club gorgevwclub.com
