coilovers are as in no means going to be comfortable... your going to feel every little thing on the road and the bumps are gonna be a killer to go over...

never heard of the g4's, but there are a few on the camry boards that have ksports

Umm ok, lets see here.............. are they comfortable?? NO............ YOU WILL FEEL EVERY BUMP ON THE ROAD, i dont care how smooth the road is, you will feel it . Also i got a question for ya, why coilovers, do you want to drop your car more than 2 inches??? if the answet to that is no, than id reconsider. Also with the coilovers your sacrificing ALL comfort, i just hope you know that. Ive got K-Sports on mine, and the only reason i got them besides that there just freaking badass, is that i wanted my camry in the weeds, and it is sitting only 3 inches from the ground in the front (yea i measured ). So think about that. Also D2 is basically the same as Ksports.

They can be perfectly comfortable depending on your spring rates and dampening adjustment. K-Sport's 9kgF/5kgR default setup is kind of high for the street IMO. I'm not sure how they've got the dampening set up though. I'm currently running 5kgF/3kgR on my non-dampening adjustable Hotbits and the front is still a bit stiff, although the rear is very comfortable.

There's other reasons to get coilovers than just for the height adjustability. Frankly I could have cared less on my stock wheels, although it was nice once I got some bigger ones. I got them to eliminate dive under braking, body roll during turns and quick manuevers, and also rear end tuck during acceleration.

can`t you adjust the damper to soft? Instead of making it super hard? thats why its called fully adjustable no? coret me if i am wrong.... now the question is, is it worth paying about 1000 dollars for it? i bult my own set of coilovers, but its too bouncy, because i don`t have the adjustable damper. Do you know other sites or anybody of where I can purchase a set of fuly adjustable coilovers? I bought 18x8 racing hart c5s and want to put it onto my car, don`t want it to scratch it onto my fenders when bouncing all over the place.... la la la

K-Sports ARE fully adjustable, 36 way adjustable that is . EVen with it on soft mine are stiff as shit, but if you went with lower spring rates youd be fine.

hey gk balla, do you bounce everywhere when you hit a bumpy road with your coilovers set at the softest point?
