Yup, you gotta cut off the perches on your brand new Konis!
Ride will be better, you'll have to crank the damping close to the max.

I love my combo of ground control coils and koni's. Make the Koni's just a half twist from the firmest setting and you will love the ride. No rubbing in the rear and my car handles exceptionally well. Love it and would do it again. Here's a pic ... I think I could lower it another 1/2 inch in the front and another inch in the back at least, but my 300 pound stereo in the trunk makes it so that I'm a little weighed down at times. Jared.  Welps ... Looks swell to me!
