I'm using these springs with koni yellow shocks on my EK and they're awesome ! Nice and firm ride and great around corners

If your going to get the yellows look at getting the sleeve kit from ground control, they allow you to adjust the height to your preference.

that's the sleeve kit, you have to email them for a shipping quote or they are available on eBay.

you can chose custom spring rates for a little extra and they also have extended tophats so if your dropping your car on its nuts then you can retain more shock travel.
