KW Variant 1 Coilovers - The Perfect Street Coilover

 

The KW Variant 1 Coilover system is the ideal introductory system for customers who prefer to rely on the experience of the KW engineers for damper settings, but require the ability to adjust the height of the vehicle to their needs. In extensive driving tests the KW engineers have set the dampers for the best balance between sporty driving, comfort and safety.

 

Note: We also carry Variant 2 & Variant 3 Coilovers which provide additional adjustability.

 

 

About KW Coilover Systems: KW Coilover systems are a combination of lowering springs and specially tuned, shortened shock absorbers that have been coupled with engineered threaded strut housings that allow you to lower your vehicle within a specified range using the adjustable aluminum spring perches.

The innovative, integrated KW solutions allow you to lower your vehicle within a safety tested TV-approved height range. (TV testing is required by the German government for any modification to your vehicle. Each KW system is individually tested and TV-approved to be equal to or greater than the factory components, and when used properly does not adversely affect your vehicle). This means sporty driving and stylish appearance while maintaining ride comfort.
