Godspeed Mono SS Coil overs???
I drive a stock '09 Fit Sport and have recently been wanting to do autocross more often. So here's my dilemma. Last month I ordered a new set of wider rims and really sticky tires to put on the car for autocross days and the occasional blast through a mountain road. I was assured that these wheel and tires were the largest size that would fit on my car without any additional work needing to be done. However, first day I had them mounted on the car I went to test them out and noticed because the front tires stick out about an inch from the fender, whenever I take a corner hard (like I will be in autocross) the tires scraped against the outside edge of the front fenders So now I have a brand new set of wheel and tires that I spent a good chunk on just sitting in the garage unusable.
I don't have a very big budget at all but I wanted to ask if anyone has heard about or experienced the Godspeed Mono SS 16-way adjustable coil overs. Found them on amazon for $630 which caught my eye because that's so cheap. What do you guys think?

1.) I wouldn't touch them, buy these instead:

2.) Size on wheels & tires?
3.) Specs on both? Manufacturer, model, etc.

225/50 R16 Hankook Ventus RS-3 tires on 16x7 Konig Control rims. How much are those Koni coil overs, and can you adjust the dampening on those?
Here's the link to the ones I was looking at:

Those are both quite tall & wide for a 2009-13 Fit. What is the offset?
The Konis are $1000, not sure if adjustable damping (not dampening, that's making things moist), will be better than the Godspeeds at every single level of its clicker.
Godspeed are lowest level junk.

stay away from the Godspeed's unless you live in a place with buttery smooth roads. I had them on my 06' civic si and I hated them for daily duties.
I'd buy those Koni's for 1k. And they are height and dampening adjustable. I'd buy them over the Bilsten's even. Especially if you are somewhat serious with auto-x.
