Rep Power: 0 The Koni probably won't give out unless you're driving around on roads full of deep pot holes and you've got the stiffness set to max. I've had Konis and Neuspeed Sport (about 1.75" drop) for a couple of months now and they're great. No problems yet except for some noises. Great. I ran autocross with them too and was running times with supercharged mustangs. [IMG]i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif[/IMG]
Your OEM will probably blow under harsh driving conditions if you lower it too much.

Rep Power: 416 no one really knows but of course the koni yellows should outlast the stocks. doesnt mean konis wont blow tho, all shocks blow eventually. and keep in mind konis arent shortened(i dont think) so when you use lowering springs with them they are still under stress because they are constantly compressed.
there are some coilovers that solve that problem.
