Default 15/10 spring rates

So has anyone have any thoughts about the new spring rates 15k front and 10k rears for the Greddy-KW coilovers?

Bro, I'm in the exact same boat as you. Should we drop a couple hundo more for Greddy x KW or go with the BCs. I don't want to make any returns and do any re installs on suspension. I would like to get it right the 1st time.

Youll need it with KW. I have seen a few threads with the plastic spring perches breaking. They are literally plastic... poor design.

Ive been on the updated spring rates since day one. Daily driven for years now on them and have zero complaints.

The perches are not 100% plastic. The plastic are over either metal or aluminum base underneath.

Stripping and this can happen to any c/o. Make sure to clean the threads before adjustments.
I was concerned as well but after talking to my mechanic, who had work on who know how many sets of KW,
I bought mine used from a local member for a very good price.
