Ksport coilovers

[45Lexroc]

Have you tried slightly adjusting the preload on the coils to compress them a little more? Gonna ride a little more rough but that's the lowlife for you.

Anyone have any luck trying to get the fronts on the k sports extremely low? Just swapped out my Megan coilovers for the k sports, and the Megan's sat a good 2 inches lower in the front than the k sports can go..

Yes, started with them snug and then compressed it about an inch more and still nothing. Back at where it was before now, but going to try to run some more negative camber and see if that helps any.

Whole point of me trading the Megan's out for these was to get super low and tight fitment for the competitions this year that I'm in. I've had k sports before and had stance builds on them but this is just kind of confusing as to why this set for our tenth gens won't go anywhere near as low

Yeah for now, the only solution is to run negative camber I guess.

Was finally able to figure out how to slam the fronts. Had to throw the stock wheels back on until I get my rear fenders pulled, will post a picture when it's done!

Well for the rears all I did was raise the collars all the way up to drop it all the way. Fronts were a little difficult and could be considered sketchy. Buuut I maxed out the camber on both sides, then maxed out the height adjuster on the shock body side, then dropped the sprig perches all the way down into the lowest third collar, essentially losing any sort of preload. For what it is it actually rides pretty decent in the front. Backs are fine, the front is a little floaty but not bad by any means. And that's with the dampening set at 16 so I'm going to raise it up to about 26/28 and see if it gets as stuff as I want it

I'll post pictures of the camber plates tomorrow to show where it's set at. Basically put the screws in the last 2 holes they could go into closest to the fender, then pushed it all the way in as far as it could go.

If you could post of the way you setup the front would be kool I want to see how you did it maybe it will work for me

I'm running some 17x9 +10mm offset wheels at the moment and planning on lowering soon. You guys think I'll be able to lower without crazy camber?

You'll have to roll the fenders if you're going low, I rolled mine and got about a quarter inch of clearance from the inside of the fender and tirewall at -3° camber all around on 18x9.5
