Default Let me get this straight...

I'm due for shocks come spring.

I don't autocross, I don't track, and I'm not going to. The roads here are so terrible that I have no interest in lowering whatsoever.

Coilovers would be wasted on me so I'm looking into the Koni sports for the lifetime warranty and the ride quality. Is it safe to say I can get away with no Kmac and stock springs? It just seems too easy.

Default Yup, I had stock springs with my Koni sports for a few thousand miles...

and they worked fine. No camber adjustment is necessary unless you lower more than about an inch. You'll like what the Konis will do for your ride.

Default I have the Bilstein HD shocks and struts with stock springs.

Excellent ride quality.

You don't need the kmac, etc unless you use lower/shorter springs.
