How do I adjust the rebound on these Koni shocks?

The rebound adjustment is done internally. You'll typically use a special tool that inserts into the shock body to turn the adjustment mechanism. Refer to the Koni installation instructions for the specific procedure for your model.

What is the difference between these Koni Sport shocks and standard shocks?

These Koni Sport shocks offer internally adjustable rebound damping, allowing you to customize the suspension's response. They are also tuned for a firmer, more performance-oriented feel compared to standard replacement shocks.

Do these shocks come with new mounting hardware?

This product listing is for the Koni Sport shock absorber itself. It is recommended to inspect your existing mounting hardware during installation and replace any worn or damaged components as needed.

Product Details

If you're looking to get a more connected feel from your 1988-1993 BMW 5 Series E34 sedan or touring, these Koni Sport shocks are a solid option. They're designed to give you a noticeable improvement in handling, especially when you're pushing the car a bit. These are the yellow ones, which means they're internally adjustable for rebound, letting you fine-tune how the shock controls the spring's return motion.

Koni builds these as twin-tube, low-pressure gas shocks. This design helps keep things cool and consistent, even during spirited driving. The internal adjustability is a nice touch; you can dial in the damping to match your driving style or specific road conditions. They fit right into the factory locations on the 525i, 530i, 535i, and 540i models from the specified years, excluding those with the M-Technik suspension package.

When installing these, remember that adjusting the rebound can make a real difference in how the car feels. A little goes a long way, so make small changes and test drive to see what works best for you. They're a well-built component that can really wake up the suspension on your E34.
