Default Coilovers help!

Sup guys I purchased some coilovers a while ago and recently threw them on. But to be honest the only reason I got them was to lower the car and make it look more “cooler” and it doesn’t look too bad(if I say so myself). The problem is I’ve never had experience with coils and was looking through the forums and noticed people mention 14k/12k what exactly is that? Also will I need to get a camber kit since I’m lowered now?

14k and the 12k is the spring rate of your springs. You would need a camber kit if you want to adjust your camber back to specs or beyond what your oem suspension allows depending how low you are.
