kts coil over questions ??

[blacktrash]

so im looking for some new coilovers and i noticed alot of you zilvians are running them. are they good, and will they tuck rim in rear on 17's
thanks

oh and dont reply if you honestly dont know about them and you just wanna act like you know every thing haha, you know who u are.

If you're tucking rim, then you aren't flush.

Therefore, Zilvians wouldn't care.


Seriously though, check the wheel fitment thread. Most people put what coils they're using, or at least they should.

what size rims are u running 17 is to vague

It doesn't matter because if he's tucking 17" diameter RIMS, that's way too low.

Can't even run it like that on stock body because he'd be scraping the frame rails going straight.

Exactly. 240s have high arches, unlike the older model Civics that everybody was tucking 16" wheels with because the arches were stupid low to begin with.

The only time people "tuck" the rim in a 240 is from high lateral G's. :D

i run KTS's with 17x9's +12 but i dont tuck em, infact they are too small to pull off anything like that. i honestly dont see why you would want to tuck a 17. mine sit nice and flush with minimun fender gap. now i rasied it a little for the winter though.

I run KTS and have been for 5 years. They have stood up to a years worth of drifting abuse, daily driving, and some spirited street driving. The only problem I have had with them is the dampning adjust knob is a little difficult to turn now, but nothing a pliers can't fix. That is only for the fronts, and I'm assuming it is from years of grime and build up. The rears are still as good as the day I got them.

Not too low though, but I plan on dropping about another 3/4"

its flush if the lips scrap the fenders.lol shooting sparks on the highway. well maybe not but that would be bad ass.

[ayuaddict]

im running KTS.

i love them, they go low enough in the rear to tuck 17s, but your exhaust will hit the ground before you do so, trust me ive tried.

the fronts however dont go low enough.

this is maxed out both collars removed on 17x9.5 (205/40)

but then again you can get shorter springs.

[pete240]

The new KTS has shorter springs IIRC.

you are a fucking douche bag

If you want to tuck with KTS go with the new Ultra Low version. However, with 17's (even with the right offset) why tuck the rim? The rim of the wheel should be flush with the fender and the tire be inside (should that be the look you are going for). That will take a lot of work to achieve that look properly though. Do your research and you will find the answers.

[blacktrash]

first off like i said i wasnt trying to tuck17 i wanted to see how low they went. and my car is in the wheel fitment whore thread cunts. sorry its not baller nice but i actually slide my car unlike some of you internet drifting nerds. and please dont reply with'' i do slide'', because obviously i am not talking about you then if u slide. but like i said thanks for the tips, the stock body white hatch is perfect hight.

[az_240]

My problem on my kts coils is the rear does not go low enough. It tucks and is very close to the fender but I want moooar. I have another 3/4" in the front and its already pretty low.

Other than that they are great coilovers for daily driving.

Listen man, I was just trying to help. You asked a question and you got answers. You cannot seriously expect to come onto a national forum and not have some people give you answers you weren't looking for or ones that may hurt your feelings.

Good luck with your car.

I don't know what gave me the idea that you wanted to tuck 17" rims in the back of a 240, I'm so fucking sorry I got off-topic you fucking idiot.

[blacktrash]

i was curious how low they go. thats all, i hope most of you die soon.

[cdlong]

well than, say that.

you sound like a piece of shit. maybe you should keep your word of never posting here again.

[ThatGuy]

Wishing death upon Zilvians isn't very nice.

Don't do it again.
