Koni Yellow Shocks - a question about comfort

I'd like to hear about this... I am going to have to replace my stock 05 shocks sooner or later due to my eibach pro drop. The Koni Yellows seem to be one of the only (and very good) options out there.

So here is the question... I know the konis will provide better handling characteristics. What will happen comfort wise? I would like to improve the ride quality if possible, over dips and bumps, while maintining the drop I have. So which should provide more comfort, koni or stock shocks with my eibach pro kit springs?

I found this post in the old archives...

"Guys, I am very happy with this combination. and it is worth every penny to me Since I got both done at the same time, it is hard to really describe the specific changes due to each separately, but the combination is awesome..the Koni's are set halfway on firmness (got to keep the wife happy too) and the ride is pretty firm, but not jarring. The car turns on a dime with almost no body roll..and has a pretty heavy feel..like you are drving a heavier, wider car..that is the kind of stability I feel..and I love it..now squat if I need to move in a hurry and the converse it true if I need to stop...I could go stiffer on the shocks, but know it won't fly with my wife, Dina."

so i guess that sort of answers my question, but he had them done at the same time, so i'm still not sure how the comfort might change. also this thread belongs in tires and suspension forum, i made a mistake.
