in the long run this setup will last longer on the car. I can now fully track the car and have proper fitment.

Very true, my coilovers come in Friday and I'll probably be on stock wheels forever just for that fact

What settings does everyone run their ksport coilovers at? I will be pulling the lock rings in the back right away if that helps. I'm just trying to take the guesswork out if it all possible

I think it looks pretty good, rear looks like it could use a spacer though. I like the look of 17's better and if I do the drilled hubs/rotors thats what I will be getting. I want lighter wheels with more rubber for better traction.

I respect the longevity of the new setup, but I like the old set up better imo

the rears have a slight poke. Everything is fairly flush though and like I said I still have to reverse mount the rears once I get time to sand down the lip and repolish.

tires are 215/45/17

That last picture maes it look totally different. It was the angle of the shot that didn't make the rear look flush, I deffinately like the way it is now. Reverse mount? Like flip it so the inside becomes the outside? Hmmm. Like my MSR's, you are going to HATE cleaning them.

with these you just take the face and move it behind the lip. making it way more aggresive and giving you a bigger lip.

Yes there 2 pce. pretty awesome I can take off the faces, repaint and do anything with the lip. I can also change out the bolts. Everything is still from Japan including the valve stem lol. Every single bolt says BBS on it which is unique in my eyes.

Still more then his. And my rears were way more aggressive. And I always said my front fitment weak.

The wheels look good. But there not aggressive at all. Lol sunken battleship
