Not sure what rates I have, its been awhile, but on the softest setting they are quite stiff. Personally I like them, the hatch corners real well.

they are quite stiff, but i like the ride of them. Don't order the lca's they dont mount up correctly to the rear si swaybar. To mount mine i had to use 7 washers. Other than the swaybar problem i like my ksports
i havent taken any pics since the drop but, i might take some tonight

I've heard alot of great things...and I have heard a couple bad things...

PM DRFlickner ... they have a great deal on all KSPORT...+ they have a Crx with it installed and can give you a real good description of how it handles.

Mostly people have complained about the harsher ride... but on the other hand some peole have praised that...

I have also heard "you get what you pay for" and these are just some generic coil-over made in taiwan...etc etc....


the good I have heard far out-ways the bad...do a search you will come up with everything that I have come up with to this point...I still plan on getting a set.
