Good deal for Koni Yellow & H&R Springs? $720 shipped

I was thinking about getting Tein SA coilovers, and I even bought the top hat assembly while waiting to save enough money for the coilovers. I've given it more thought and now I'm leaning towards Koni Yellow Sport shocks and H&R springs.

Redline360 has the Konis for $488 shipped and the H&Rs for $209 + $22 shipping

I've never heard of this store, but they are an authorized dealer, and $722 shipped is about $100 cheaper than anywhere else I can find.

Does this seem like a great deal? Will I need anything else to install these myself? Can I use the top hat kit that I bought? Thank you

Why not save a little more so you can dial in the exact height you want?

I can afford coilovers, but after looking at photos on AZ of other members with H&R springs and Konis, I think they will provide a good height. Besides, it's not like I will be adjusting the height constantly. H&Rs will provide about a 1.4" drop, and if I want to go lower I can adjust the Konis to get another 1/2" drop. Nearly everyone that has Konis has given great reviews and they offer a better shock than Tein.

If your not really concerned being lower than 2'' the koni yellows and H&R springs will
work great. And have good stance JMO.

Thank you.

I'm not trying to get into a debate between coilovers and shocks+springs. I'm trying to get opinions on whether the price is decent for the Konis + H&Rs.

^^^ I think it's a good price for the Koni set up. But there will always be a better deal
around the corner.

I have the Konis and the H&R sports springs and those are an excellent combo. I have the Konis at the softest setting which is definitely firmer than stock. I live in the city so the roads aren't always the best. When you snap a corner the yellows firm-up very fast.

The price above is good.
