Koni FSD with Eibachs

Quick question - I've got an '03 Cooper with Eibach lowering springs and 17" S-spoke wheels, I've read conflicting advice whether the Koni FSDs will work well with these springs with no problems.

Can I get the Koni FSDs with my Eibachs?

Mark

Anyone go down this route? Is there a Koni damper that is designed for the eibach pro kit springs?

Any help appreciated.

Koni do make a 'sport' damper often referred to as 'yellows', they are adjustable but think its only the rebound and the rears have to be removed to do so but they are suited to lowering.

^^ Ade is right the yellow is not the best compromise next to the FSD, a popular one in the IUSA is to run the FSD with h-sport -25mm eibach are a bit low for the FSD at 35-40 (they can sag) best bet relay is KW V1's or h-sport springs
