KW Variant 3 Coilovers - Race Technology for the Road
The new KW Variant 3 is state-of-the-art technology for the discriminating and experience driver. The separate and independent compression and rebound damping options allow a truly individual driving set-up. These unique systems with the 3 adjustable components, allows for adjustment of the compression and rebound of the damper in the low-speed range, allowing you to custom tailor your suspension to your driving needs.
The compression characteristics are adjusted utilizing a new, patented valve at the lower end of the damper casing. The number of pre-installable parameters available for this valve allow for settings for just about any application required. The unique low-speed pressure adjustment is the decisive feature of this technology. In this absorption area the handling of the vehicle is greatly influenced. An increase in the damping force supports the vehicle even during compression, thereby preventing pitch, roll and notably improving cornering behavior.
In association with independent adjustable rebound absorption the experienced driver has all the parameters required for effective suspension tuning.
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.
All new KW Coilover systems are constructed using the new stainless steel INOX-line strut housings that provide the ultimate in corrosion resistance, guaranteeing functionality for the life of the vehicle. By far the best quality available.
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.
