I'm planning on getting Meisters once the snow is gone. Spring rates are softer than K-Sport. You can go 6/6 or 6/4. There's a few guys with them here.

Hello. Im in the market for a nice quality of coilovers for my hatch as well. How is the ride of these set? Can you setup the dampers up close to stock ride quality?

Thank you! I had a local shop install them. I asked for an inch in the front and an inch and a quarter in the rear. They definately went lower than that I am thinkning. I am super happy with the stance though. My concern was getting up my driveway without scraping, lucky I do not :)

I really like the ride quality. It is definately stiff. I have the dampening set at 18 clicks hard. It's not bouncy but it is night and day more stiff than stock.

What size & model of tires are you on ?

Do you mean you are 18 clicks from full soft ?

So even at that setting, the ride is not beating you up over the bumps ?

Have you tried setting up to full open (soft) im really after a comfy ride like stock and able to lower the car by 1”max. At the same time i have an option to stiffen the ride if i fill like it. How hard is it to adjust the damper on rear? I really don’t mind the price as long as it is quality set of coilovers.
