Default Koni adjustable shocks/struts and Goldline springs.

I am wondering if anyone has this combo and what do you think about it? How do you like the ride? What shock settings are you using?

I have an '04 xB. In fact, I was within the first 10 people in all of Vegas to own an xB. I also think I was the first person in town (by all accounts I've been able to discover) to put Goldline springs on an xB.

I have since loved these springs. Unfortunately, I had my stock front right strut bite the dust on me. I figured rather than getting a new set of "oem" struts, I might as well get something BETTER. After all, it was the stock struts that bit toast on me after only 3 years. I don't want that to happen again. So, I splurged and went for the Koni adjustables.

I am curious if anyone out there has the same shock/spring combo and their opinions on the setup.......as well as what shock settings they are using and how they like em.

Konis are great, the 04 XA is running great on stock springs only mod the Koni sportlines, flies passed patches on the road. Set em on the center and closer to stiff setting side..

done.
