Hey bkackbenzz. I know they do have that adjustment, thats why its not that choppy. But the of course there is a trade off. Plus the back doesnt go that low. Any insights on that?

Why? The spring pads are totally adjustable too, so you can choose the height you want

I'm new to coils and the springs on the kw are actually pretty hard to adjust. Like $50 a pop. If i bring up the height, will the ride improve as well? Or will there be no difference

Let me know how low your coils go at the back! I still have a fingergap at 0mm with 19s 235/35? I'll post photos once i complete my setup
