2010 Ksport Kontrol Pro, how low can you go?

I just installed my first set of 2010 Kontrol Pro's on an 05 MCS this weekend and wanted to see if anyone else has as well. First off, these Coilovers are 2nd to none in my book, in-terms of quality and drop. The MINI I installed them on, wanted only a conservative drop from his ride height using lowering springs. Anyone else lower their MC or MCS using Ksports?

Heres some pics/info on the 2010 Kontrol Pros





And now for some pics of the MINI!


Lowering Springs in the Front



and Rear...








After!


Look at how much more room we had to go in the Rear!







Here is EuroRicer on an earlier model of Ksports

Do you have a shock dyno plot of these coilovers?

What spring rates do they run?

How much travel do they have?

I have heard good things about the new KSport, but interested to see what BSH has to say about it.

I should have posted sooner, seeing that this is my car. I'm completely satisfied with these coil overs. Simply the best coil over for the price. I was surprised at how well the ride quality is... Much better than the drop springs. highly recommend K sport coil overs. BSH was very helpful in making it happen. BTW the spring rates are 414lbs in the front, and 336 lbs in the rear.
