    I don't know if all these parts is a good combination for great preformance and ride quality?
    My euro factory set up is great for ride quality but LESS good for performance driving!?

    Getting valuable information from other people who has the same stuff koni/vogtland kit is gold for me.
    Everybody doesn't have the same taste.
    Question is?
    Buy or not buying Koni's?
    I really don't think you can go wrong with the Koni top adjustable, you are bound to find a suitable setting or even two settings - one for everyday and the other for hard driving, may just take a little time to fine tune the ideal setting. The same with the spring pad combo.

    As for the Vogtland springs, they are reasonably popular here in Europe, again I don't imagine any problems, anyway they are bound to be a vast improvement on standard springs. Personally, I reckon spring brand is over hyped in cheaper or more modest price bracket. Doubt there's much different between an Eibach and your Vogtland. Buy the Koni's. The only reason I'm not is simply cost ($200 more expensive than the H&R's) and it's not just the money. I got a very cheap C230 Kompressor that I didn't need but couldn't resist so I have to keep things under control as I've also got a 2.5-16 begging for money to be spent on it
