Default do i need coilovers with a k-member?

Getting a UPR k member from my buddy and I was going to use my stock control arms for now. Do I have to run coilovers with the upr k member or can I use my springs?

All the UPR K-members I have seen do not have spring perches, if they're not included yes you will have to run coilovers.

yep but i think im going to be switching to coil overs, i had the eibach prokit and with the k member and stock arms and lowering springs it was way too low, dropped it even more so i put the stock springs up front and it sits perfect
