car looks good! weather looks not so good. when the roads clear up and you've put a few miles on the car, post some more pictures and comment on ride quality.

Damn. That's a nice stance. I'm also looking to lower my car on adjustable coil overs. I'm having the hardest time deciding between the:

Bilstein PSS Coilovers - $1350CAD
ST Coilovers (by KW) - $1250CAD

Any advice?

Speaking personally on my E60, I run KW Street Comforts. I have over 40,000 miles on the kit and it is still riding like the day I installed em. The Street Comforts have a softer spring rate but the adjustable like a V2. Not much more than the STs. Just my 2 cents.

ST is a great coilover. The spring rate for the front is 400 and rear is progressive.

Awesome stance! I am looking into either doing the KSports or KW V2s. How is the ride on the Ksports? Is it firm but comfortable?
