Price is compelling but I hated the Koni sports on my 9-3 SE and SPG, might be ok for autocross, but not as a daily driver. Must have adjusted them a dozen times, but could never find the sweet spot. The FSDs are more compliant, less racetrack. The Aero rides worse than my old Viggen did, so I don't need more bad ride, that is probably why some have deAeroed there cars, not to mention for a sensible level of ground clearance.
How did you set yours up with the old worn out springs and spacers, did you use the JJ perf spacers or Koni spacers from GS? Where do you have your damping set? Are you planning to do something with a saggin front end as well? Mine is 1.25" low in front as a mere 100k so I woud have the wedgie look with just the back end jacked up to normal height. Have not heard a fix for that. Maybe the subframe and control rod bushes will help a bit on the front end.
I have to do this DIY anyway as my indie refuses to put spacers on bad springs.
