Finally got everything done right! Did the toe bolts and man do I love this ride! Got the ride height up to 27.5" so when it settles it's not super low. I'm not scraping my brace against anything and the ride is nice! I would almost say better than OEM! I love these coil overs! Doing some research a lot of people pair the KW V3 with Swift Springs. Not sure if I want to do that next. Got the rear to align correctly so taking turns feels great!

Those KWs come w/ quality springs, you should be fine w/ them, doubt the Swifts would be much better unless you're wanting a spring rate that is quite different.
Glad to hear you can finally enjoy your G again

Isnt it absolutely dramatic and night and day in difference once your alignment is in spec?

:-D

I got mine done the other day and i was just blown away by how nice and stiff and solid the steering wheel feels in your hand, steering response becomes so damn crisp!

I was planning to use the midlinks I bought from SPL. I guess I'll be putting that up on the classified then.

Yes it is amazing how an alignment can do that. I drove to Firestone after getting the toe bolts in because I didn't want to pay for alignment at the shop when I have already paid for lifetime alignment at Firestone, and it wasn't feeling right. When I left Firestone..... it was like dang!! This is some good stuff!
