We like to use the Bilsteins with our G2 super springs, but the Konis will work well, too. We currently don't have the front shocks in stock, but we should be getting some pretty soon.
Shoot me an e-mail or give me a call if I can help out.

thanks. would the slp valved shocks be better than the hd's? by the way the g2 super springs will take all but like a 1/2" of gap out of the wheel wells. i'm not shure about the actual amount that the car droped but L.G. says 1 1/2f 1 5/8r but this may vary by car due to weight. i think that my back droped a little lower but not much. also i have only scraped once on the low hanging resonator of my loud mouth pulling into a driveway. o they also get rid of the nose dive and make the car handle better. hope that helped

its my understanding that the HD's will have a bit harsher of a ride than that of the SLP's, but id say call slp or ask someone that has them is your best bet.
