If they haven't shipped I'd recommend going with BC, KWs, or Stance. I've got Ksports and the rears are a pain to adjust once they are on the car. The damper control is actually built into the shock so you have to remove the shock to change the damper. Hope you get it right before you install!

I've got mine about 3 clicks away from the stiffest setting up front and about 4 from the softest out back. When I'm feeling froggy and have some time to kill...I'm going to readjust the rears a few more clicks stiffer. I'm getting used to the ride now...it's actually not that bad. I have the lock rings completely removed in the rear so it's sitting as low as possible out back...up front I have it about an inch from the lowest it'll go. Here's how she sits...

This was taking right after my last adjustment...my handles have since been swapped out to match the color of the car.
