So I bought my xB from a friend last weekend and got a set of slightly used Ksports last week and did the install this week.
I didn't change the last settings my friend had on his Ksports so the strut tube is about an inch in the mount about level with the lower eyelet mount.
I plan on going lower by probably another inch or so but it will be a slow process due to the fiber glass body kit that is molded in. I figured I would let the road grind it down for me. It has started doing its job after one day I have a few nice grind spots.
So after I get lower profile tires and grind the kit down some more I plan on going a little lower.
I will say I know it needs some cosmetic work and that will all be handled in time. Just glad to have another first gen xB.
