Seriously, if you've got Koni on the front which are quite a firm damper I wouldn't put anything else on the rear, what were you thinking of fitting?

Fit a softer rate damper and you'll have a car that understeers more than a standard coupe, not something you want really.

Can you hold off fitting the fronts until youve saved enough to buy some rear konis?

It's £196 for a pair of rear konis, how much are you willing to pay?

I've got a pair of adjustable rear Koni's that may be for sale in a few weeks, but have to wait until the sale of my car
