KSPORT coilovers

Would you guys recommend these over the megan/bc. They seem like they make a good product

Everything I read about the Ksports said that the struts were prone to leaking.

Come on...Any coilovers under a 1000.00 suck??

What makes a 1000.00 dollar suck? Are you a coilover manufacture?? The cost that goes into making a KW,Tein, Or some other supposed high end coilover, is not any more than what Megan,BC and others put into there coilovers.

The difference between these companies is a long marketing history.

There is no need to hate because you spent hundreds more on a set of coilovers that are not gonna make your car go around the track any faster than mine. I highly doubt that you or I will ever be able to out drive a 1000.00 dollar set of coilovers. I would bet my life on it that the car would fail somewhere else before the coilovers couldn't handle yours or my driving.

Aren't a lot of the coils manufactured from the same factory but just branded differently under different contracts?
