Ksport Coilovers?

So any opinions on Ksport coilovers vs bilstein, kw, h&r?

I'm about to get coilovers and some sways. There are a few different
sway bars, but the h&r swags are the cheapest by like
200$ and are non-adjustable.

Oh yea I can get a really good deal on the ksports.
They list at like 1500$ or 1600$ while the bilstein list at
2100, but **********s is selling them for 1600. And KW V2s are
about the same. I can get the Ksports brand new for a good bit cheaper.
I'm still leaning towards bilstein or kws and uuc sways or h&r sways.

I want to do all my suspension before I get new rims.
I mean if I can find some used KW V2's or Bilstein Pss9 should I do that?
Or I could just buy them new?? Opinions?

Guess I will probably go KW V2 or Bilstein PSS9, everything else is
much more expensive. Which one would you guys either go?

Yea I think thats what I'm going to do!! Thanks, just seeing what
you guys though. Even my pals that have civics and other rides told me
to go better quality and I knew I wanted it, but now I think spending the extra 600-700$ is worth it

Go with Bilstein or KW. If you're going to do suspension you might as well do it right the first time. Let us know if you need a quote.
