Getting my KW V2s installed right now so figured I'd share some before and after pics. The min drop for these are 1.6 inches for those wondering and I don't think I'll be dropping them lower than that. Note they will need to drop in so better "after" pics in a week or so.

See here. The v1 is the same thing. The difference is ride quality adjustment. I asked a couple of shops before buying and they all said V3 is if you plan on tracking the car all the time. For everyday driver and occasional track days the V2 are great. V1 is only if you want to adjust the drop.

Yeah like you - that's why I went rep for my front lip I give it a lifespan of about 12-16 months after that it goes in the trash and I slap a new one on.
ps- great choice on the coilovers! The Dinan springs are nice but what you've done is better - that 1.6 minimum drop is aggressive again anxiously waiting for the pics |

This is the highest it can be. It's hard to determine the quality right now since it's so new and needs to set. In a week it should be set and then I'm doing the alignment. So far it feels just as comfortable as oem but going into corners the car doesn't shift as much which is really nice. I think when I do the alignment I'm going to firm it up a bit to see how it feels.

Had some KW's on my 335 and loved them. Looks awesome bet I'd def be worried about clearance where I live during the winter months (and potholes that seem to pop up randomly everywhere).
Let us know how they drive once they've settled!

Read on a few F30 threads that KW was shipping incorrect springs which caused the max height to be lower than designed. Wonder if this is the case here as that seems awfully low to be the "max height."
