congratulations on buying crap coilovers.
please feel free to come back shortly to tell us how they are leaking or have a bouncy ride. in essence ksport is not valves at all for our cars. i have never heard or seen from personal experience anything good coming out of ksport...
if you want something that works well look into bilstein/hypercoil or kw coilovers.

Dang, talking about slamming the mans coilovers. I dont know if its worth the bouncing ride or having to move the wires above into the hood compartment. I hope you are very pleased with them once they are settled. What size and rim are you going with? Looking forward to the pictures and keep us informed.

Lol. I will keep everyone informed. Good or bad and I haven't official decided yet on wheels.. I want something like the andSwiss wheels that lexforlife has. I love the euro style wheels.. I wanna do 18 front and 19 rear..
I have to move the wires bc of the ksport coils?
Or bc I lowered them soo low?

haters.
it's my first coilover setup.. soo far i'm pleased.. i was going to go with Tein Basics but MVP recommended these instead.. they said ksport were only about 200 bucks more but the ksports are aluminum which will not rust and said the tein has a prob with rust and something about the ksports are easier to adjust for the customer.. 
I have ksports on my integra. Everyone told me how ****ty they were and how they blow within the first year. All I can say is ive had them for 3 years now and theyre fine. I have the fronts very stiff and the rears pretty loose for an "oversteering feel". Perhaps thats why my rears havent blown yet? I am also running lower then you. Maybe I just got lucky with my set?
Good luck. Did you get custom spring rates?

yeah they are easy to adjust since the bottem housing can be rotated into the strut making the coilover shorter without messing with the rebound like most other coils.

I looked above the wheel today and it is rubbing a Lil when I hit big enough bumps to make the body and wheel move toward each other so I will relocate them this Saturday. Maybe just see if I can move them high enough so the wheel won't hit them
