I bought the BAT spring/Koni Strut combination for my SE/SVT project car.

Koni - only comes in the UK kit and maybe one person has tried the package. I would expect the matched setup to be good. I'd guess they are between Eibach and H&R. Very costly after exchange, shipping, and VAT.



They�re not very costly right now. Take a look at this page; http://www.ajusa.com/cgi-bin/koni/details?part_num=1130%201603&products=1&part_category=KONI%20Sport%20Suspension%20Kit&specific_fit=98-01%20FORD%20Contour%20Sedan%206%20Cyl.&ajr_skey=3701e6c405a66c1af7fb245cf8762fc2

That's $8.03 less than the BAT spring/Bilstein strut combination. And the shipping is FREE!

So I ordered the Koni Sport Suspension Kit on Monday for my SVT "toy".
