Will the Koni shocks make the ride less comfortable?No, its the opposite to what you would expect. We only sell them because they are excellent and the ones on our Range Rover have done 70K miles and are as good as the day we fitted them. They have been in quarries, underwater, in mud, and been 130 mph in Germany. Are they good? The Koni Way. To understand the main advantage of the Koni shocks when used on a Range Rover, it is necessary to understand what is happening when you are cornering. When cornering, the shock absorber on one side is being compressed and is trying to hold the weight forces of the vehicle. Heavily uprating the shock absorber will partially resist this, but when uprating is excessive it causes normal driving to be very harsh. The shock absorber on the other side, however, is being stretched, and standard shocks offer very little resistance to this.
