4th Generation Coilover Q's

Need some help fellas, I am about to order some ksport coilovers and im tryin to figure out if i need spacers so that my 19 by 7.5in rims dont rub against the coil. Plus does anyone know how much stiffer a 9kg/mm spring over a 7kg/mm spring in the rear would be. I do want to have a stiff ride...

that will be very stiff... i have hotbits coilovers - and i am running 7kgF/5kgR and it is VERY rough for a DD... i do not know what you would have done to the car that you would want 9's in the rear...

plus on the same coilvers i had 19X8's with 225/35 tires and no rubbing... i can't speak for ksport, but i don't know why it would be any different with a 19X7.5 - what is your offset and tire size?

just my $.02
