Never heard of that. What about the coilovers would make the Konis too short? Konils fit fine with stock or ProKits or Sportlines.

Not too short...
Their adapters let stop the rattle, cause KONI are smaller in diameter than the stock shock.

you NEED them.....the koni perch is designed SPECIFICALLY for a stock (or similar aftermarket spring, like H&R sport, or eibach), but it WILL NOT WORK w/ GC w/o the adapter

You can get the necessary Ground Control/Koni adapters for the rear directly from Ground Control. I just ordered them. $25.00 shipped.
