how hard is to adjust the back, do you have to take the back spring off inorder to adjust the coilover?

 

i really havent adjusted the springs. I left them at what they sent them at. I gave it a little drop, maybe 1in or 2. I dont want to go any lower, i already have problems with cutting my back passenger tire when i have my custom rims on. But i dont believe that you have to take off the back springs to adjust.

 

how do they ride compared to stock?

 

They are stiffer then stock, but i would say they handle better then stock. The ride is not to bad, i drive alot and its pretty smooth.

 

looking good, i have sportlines and im waitinf for struts before i put them on.

 

u should do the back seat test...lol....if people sit in the back and don't hit their heads on the roof when you go over bumps then the ride is awesomely smooth.

 

what is the axel bearing? how are the coilovers holding up after a few months? also how long did it take to get them from germany?

 

They are holding up very well. They havent changed really, still the same ride. The axel bearing, i probably called the wrong thing but there is a piece in the original hardware for the stuts that turns so the strut doesnt move from side to side and doesnt make the strut turn. Its like a big washer, ,but has some bearings in it. Thats the best that i can describe it. As for shipping from germany, if i remember it didnt take to long maybe a week or so. I got them from turbo tech.

 

^ Its called a strut mount bearing. Its part of the strut mount.

It was fairly fast, I think it was just over 1 week to your door.

 

what happens if one of the kw struts blows out? also how was the fitment of the front strut bolts into the stock tower, did you have to drill the holes out bigger to make the bolts fit?

 

Congrats on your purchase! The pics are great, too.
The soonest I'll be able to get some of these is when I get my tax refund. April at the latest.
That's IF something else doesn't turn to **** in my life, requiring piles of cash to fix.

No everything fit like it was suppose to be there. I didnt have to do anything differnt and it was fairly easy. If i remember i had checked out there web site and they had replacement struts. But dont hold me to that.

 

would you recommend the kw coilovers for a everyday driving setup? how much better are they from the h&r springs?

 

i would recommend the kw's over the h&r springs. the h&r springs, i bottomed out alot and cut my rear tire. But with the kw's i have had no problems really. Its a pretty good ride. I drive about 110 miles aday for work, so i can say they are good for daily driving.

 

Do you have a strut bar on your car?

 

Yes i do. I have the dc strut bar.

 

i see that fron is adjustble

how do u adjust hight on the back ?

 

same as the front
