Thumbs up K-Sport Pro installed!

Got around to the install today... I bought these from BeanGarage to compare with my Skunk 2 coilovers..and I must say these are a lot more comfortable "new" than my Skunk2's were when new. Now I've got to let them settle a bit before I can make a definitive decision on the one's I prefer the most.
These feel tight but at the same time they feel as smooth as oem's. I'm on 17x7" 205/40"s w/40mm and 5 mm spacers +30, rears 10mm spacers+30. There is absolutely no rubbing on hard bumps or with five riders These coilovers will lay frame in the front and dayum near the rear too! At this drop (moderate) I installed camber bolts to the top in the front. "I'm as happy as a kid in a candy store!!!"

Thanx ma'man, there is definitely a noticeable difference from springs...
especially having the ability to dial in your own suspension travel and ride height..

Keyword DSM, "FUNCTIONALITY"
It took about 3-4 hours to get everything adjusted to my liking!

Nice shots Vinny. Like the build up all the way around bro! Not too "Hey look at me!" but more of "You'll know when I'm here" -type setup. Now you can go WOT @ 55 up and down (H1) is it? lol!!! Good job! Good build!!!

Thanx T, I would luv the aggressive drop but there's just to many headaches that go along with that..I mainly just wanted to have a comfortable ryde and lose the wheel well gap.
