The lower spring perch, the silver 'cup' the spring sits in at the bottom, can be mounted two ways.

Adjust the rears before you put them on. They are on car adjustable, but it's a bitc*.

Shop around, I got quotes that varied by as much as $200.

Would the Koni Strut upgrade be recommended for a car that is a daily driver? I put on atleast 60 miles per day.

I dont see why not

I think they're more daily driver friendly than coilovers. Ive never had an issue with bottoming out or scraping. Set to full soft the ride isn't at all harsh. Im at 3 turns from full soft front and 2 rear, its almost too stiff at those settings.

They can be rebuilt if necessary, and come with a lifetime warranty

I would agree with this 100%. They can be set to feel just like factory struts on flat surfaces, but then feel much stiffer in turns. 3 full turns is a lot (do they even go that far?)! Mine are 3/4 of a full turn from full soft and they feel perfect to me. I suppose as they get older I will dial up the stiffness a bit.
