I have KSPorts, and stock endlinks. So far, after more than a year, no issues or problems at all.

I can't speak for CK coilovers because I have zero experience with them. But as far as KSport's big selling points:

- Coils are made in Taiwan but they have a large facility in AZ so they can deal with warranty claims, repairs, etc.

- 18 month warranty

- Been around for a very very long time at least 5 years

- KSport has been a proven setup on 5series.net. I've sold a lot of sets to members

- Support for KSport is but a phone call away to their facility in AZ.

- I've been a distributor for many years so KSport won't screw with my customers if an issue arises.

- KSport has quite a few accolades in the motorsport world from sponsoring drift cars to road racing.

Ordered my wheels 3 days ago ( 20" LMs reps) & ordered tires yesterday went with the FK 452's which I narrowed it down from the Falken 452 vs Hankook V12 thread.
Shout out to JG525i for that one.
Had my Ksports sitting in the garage litaerally all winter, been waiting for spring time to pop to install.
Wheels & tires should arrive early next week when those are in the next day Ksports will be installed. Can't wait to see & feel the upgraded performance of my 530i.
Will post pics when all is completed..

Ksports are running just fine for me. I get compliments on my stance all the time.
