So I ordered a set about two days ago and did some research and heard that they are pretty good but then when i bought them and did more research and heard they are terrible so im kinda confused now so if any one can help me and tell me how you guys like them or dislike them and if possible show me pics or your cars with the k sports that would gladly help thanks

frowhat ive seen and heard the older ones were bad and blew shocks. the new ones are great if u like a stiff ride. i personally do thats why im going to be ordering me a set real soon.

i have k-sport coilover on my 99 civic EX sedan.

in a few months, water/moisture collected on the top mount holes for the adjustment ***** for the damping settings (the **** you turn for hard/soft settings). they rusted and now they're stuck in the full soft position. the **** now turns freely and won't let me change the settings anymore. there were no rubber covers included to prevent that from happening and i thought just leaving the adjustment ***** in would prevent it from happening; but it did.

after almost a year of use, the shocks have now leaked the oil and are now blown. i installed the set correctly with 0 preload on the springs. they are now busted and the ride is stiff and bouncy. the springs are no longer assisted by the struts during rebound.

i hope you have a better experience with yours.

I've had mine on for a year on my 89 hatch without a problem. A good friend of mine has had them on his EM2 for 50,000+ miles and no problems yet either.

OP, i'd get a refund or sell the ksports. There has been too many problems with these coilovers.

I've had mine for almost 2 years.I must be one of the lucky people that actually got a good batch because I haven't had any problems with mine.I have raised and lowered my ride height more than a few times and same with the damping.

I think if you are just using them for DD,you should be o.k.,but there's obviously way better setups for the track.Either way,you already got them,might as well put them on and find out for yourself how you like them because opinions on Ksport coilovers are all over the place.

^^^ very true thanks guys

I've had mine for a year and been slammed off and on and daily driving for awhile. But i'm always raising and lowering them and they've been great not one problem with them. They are a little loud when you hit bumps, but they've been holding up great for me, no complaints!

Im also looking at the k-sport coilovers as an alternative to the more pricey koni/ground control combo

i have had mine for about a year. not one problem yet.
i drove around dumped for 5 months. then went k so i had to raise it. I daily drive my car and live in jersey, home the the man holes aka pot holes.

and customer service is GREAT!!!!my friend messed up a coilover(his mistake) called them up, shipped it to them, they looked at it and said yep your mistake and offered him a BRAND NEW coilover for $100. cant beat that

I've heard many stories about K-sports on 240sx's.... 95% of the time they are bad, so many people hate on them.

RedneckRicer

hated mine. 4 months driving. all of them were leaking fluid stipped off all the anodizing. then rode like ****. called K sport they would not do anything to help me.

LCA bushings were beat to hell Junk bushings.

Never again will i buy a cheap coilover
