K-break Coilovers
Does anyone know what the K-Break coilovers are like? They are the most expensive coilovers on the market, so I was wondering what is so special about them. Looks like they have a higher spring rate.

spring rates mean nothing.
Products in this genre are based on a "What can I get for this" mentality.
You will purchase the right to say "I have the most expensive......" 9 outta 10 times.

EDIT: The thread was in regards to "price". The spring rates will not cost any more than the next.
they shouldnt be a factor in pricing outside of minimal increase for custom rates. All Damper manufacturers and retailers can easily swap out springs....ive done it plenty of times
There isnt too much more damper manufactures can do to make a car better, outside of sum exotic active suspension setup...which will cost more than the average person can even think of buying any way.
Everything from here on out is icing on the cake as far as minor tweeks being made to coilovers.
Ive seen their rebadged coilovers and brakes...the only thing that justifies the cost increase is the fact that they are a premium brand.
Certainly not a knock against them, theyve got sum REALLY nice stuff.
no different than 98% of all VIP companies....

What's more important is who makes them
The high spring rate is just for riding low without scraping as much.

The rear wheels on my F50 rub when I accelerate, and those are factory stock springs. I weighed my car and it is about 400lbs heavier than stock.
