+1 with that Chuck! That is amazingly cheap, and even the regular price was not terrible either. Very interested to hear how they turn out!

Shame it is clearance, as it may mean they are blowing out old inventory and there will be none left in the future. Might as well grab them while you can! Unfortunately my car has Nivomat rear shocks, but I can still use the fronts as it is not the XC AWD.

To KONI or not to KONI :D ? Son: Dad one KONI is more than the entire set.

He has KONIS on the front and Bilsteins in back of his 08 C30 T5. Smooth and yet firm with quick response.

Yeah, I probably wouldn't use them on anything we have currently, but in a pinch, those would keep a car on the road.
