Koni's or Bilsteins

I know there both good shocks but with one has a better ride to them.

I have a 1986 Vette.

I don't want a stiff riding car

Hows thoses Tokico.

I had a friend that had KYB They blew a seal out of them under a year I dont want them.

The car has a set of OLD Monrows on them I don't how old at least 10 years. they were on the car when I got it 6 months ago.

Bilstiens are proven. Koni's are expensive. Do you have Z51?

No Z51 I have the poorsman vett LOL.

I had a set of Bils on my old 4X4 3/4 Ford pick up Liked them but just making sure before I pay out and Koni's are only $100.00 more and sometimes you better to pay more just making sure.
