Hi all, should the shocks become soft or stiff when they turned bad? What I was told & learned is the car will become bouncy when we pushed down on a corner of the car in the case of a bad shock. But what if the car couldn't be pushed down? Is that a sign of a bad shock too?

Only the front is externally adjustable for my car's application. Rear requires compression. The set is about 750 SGD. Is it worth it to buy this vs TEIN coilovers cost about $1500 SGD and are externally adjustable. I'm pairing Koni's with Eibach sportline (lower by 2")
