Koni Standard Damper
At Design911, we offer Koni standard dampers for Porsche models, giving you access to one of the best-known names in suspension. Drawing on Koni’s long experience in road and motorsport applications, these shocks are designed to deliver controlled, consistent damping suitable for everyday use and enthusiastic driving, while remaining compatible with standard-style suspension setups.
Why do Porsche Koni Standard matter?
Koni standard dampers influence how your Porsche rides, handles and copes with day-to-day road surfaces. As original dampers age, they can lose control, leading to bouncing, instability and uneven tyre wear. Refreshing your suspension with quality Koni components helps your Porsche feel more composed, reduces unwanted movement and supports even, predictable behaviour on typical road journeys.
- Help maintain a stable, well-controlled ride for your Porsche
- Support consistent tyre contact with the road for predictable responses
- Address age-related wear such as bouncing, leaks and poor body control
- Contribute to long-term enjoyment and confidence in everyday driving
Common options & kits
Individual replacement parts Specific front or rear Koni standard dampers can be chosen to address a particular axle or corner where wear is most noticeable, letting you tackle issues step by step.
- Ideal for targeted repairs
- Lets you replace only what is needed
- Useful when refreshing a single axle first
Matched sets or pairs Front or rear pairs of Koni standard dampers help ensure both sides of the axle behave consistently, which is important for balanced, predictable handling.
- Consistent feel and behaviour left to right
- Helps avoid uneven ride and damping
- A sensible approach when servicing a tired suspension
Complete kits In some cases, grouped Koni packages allow you to refresh a full set of dampers in one go, useful if you are carrying out a broader suspension overhaul on your Porsche.
- All specified dampers in a single package
- Saves time compared with sourcing items individually
- Well suited to restorations or full suspension refreshes
Brands available in this category
For this category we stock a wide choice of trusted brands for Porsche models. You can also browse and filter by brand on this page to focus on your preferred manufacturers.
When should you review or replace your Koni Standard Dampers?
Checking Koni standard dampers and related suspension items periodically helps you spot age-related wear before it affects how your Porsche feels to drive. Over time, seals, internal components and associated mounts can degrade, reducing control even if the change is gradual.
- Existing dampers are bouncing, leaking or visibly aged
- You notice instability, vague responses or a choppy ride from your Porsche
- Tyres show uneven or accelerated wear that may be linked to poor damping
- You are carrying out wider suspension work and want a consistent, refreshed setup
If any of these apply, it is a good time to review your Koni standard and replace anything that is past its best so your Porsche stays dependable and pleasant to drive.
