Think they look nice but maybe a taller tyre would fill the arches. I am guessing they are 40 maybe a 45/50 would fill the arch a bit more.

As for the coil overs lots of people are talking about being able to adjust the stifness. You can do this where the compression damping is adjustable. Effectivey you slow the rate that the oil can pass between chambers, this will stiffen but is not a substitute for the correct spring rate. Coil overs come in 2 standard sizes and springs of all weights and lengths are available.

I would suggest that if you get a set of coil overs for a KV6 model you get a lighter spring. The KV6 is about 40% heavier that the K4 engines so spring rate around 30% lower should do the trick.

If you simply do it on the damping you will end up dialing the compression right down and end up with no adjustment left to customise the ride.

Ross, have you kept you Kei off the ZR, they would look great on the ZS.?

I definately agree with that. Black and silver really suits the car, in fact i'd say they look amazing!

only things I did to the chop were the wheel spokes powdercoated black, medium tints, coilovers, and silvertech indicataors, but it's so effective isn't it
