Ksport vs. tein basics?

K guys, im finally going to make the purchase of coilovers for my car and I would like to get some feedback on the Ksports that ppl had installed. Ive heard good things basics as being a decent upgrade from stock. I was just wondering if the little extra money for Ksports is worth it. My plans are to have the car sit about 2 in lower than stock and hopefully preserve the casual ride. Im going to make the purchase of coilovers today since my car is at 85k and has some major front end issues that have suddenly got worse over the weekend. So why not fix something besides the front end, actually im just trying to not pay for two alignments.
Mainly, im leaning towards the Ksports but I havent seen much feedback on them since people purchased them a few months back.
The big question for cambers, from all the other posts ive seen about changing cambers that only applys to people lowers the car a significant amount. I wont be going far from stock. I would consider the cambers if they might play a role in helping with even tire wear and be worth the investment.

You might want to consider speaking to AMR Engineering before you throw out all that money.
Big thread running in Honda Tech forums.
This is where I'll be hanging my hat, so to speak, when things are sorted.

if you are just comparing between ksport and tein basics then i would go with ksport. if you are comparing to other tein suspensions then i would probably go tein. however the basics just dont have enough adjustments.

If you are looking to preserve the stock ride comfort then the TEIN Basics would be better suited for you. They are firmer than stock, but not stiff. The K Sports are generally firmer than the Basics and offer a quicker rebound.
