Do a bunch of research and even drive or ride in a car with the equipment you want to move to before you do it to make sure you like the change.

I love the Ksport coil overs and prefer them over conventional coil overs. Esp in the lower price point. Part of the problem with adjustable coil overs is the fact they are adjustable. most people don't know how to adjust them.

I think the biggest positive with the Ksport is the adjustable lower mount, which means height adjustability without affecting the spring preload. With normal coil overs you loosen the spring preload to lower the car which in many cases is the last thing you want when the suspension has less room to travel before bottoming out.
