Anyone running kw1 coilovers?

The point of adjustable coilovers isnt the ability of constant height adjustment Rather it is the ability to make SPECIFIC adjustment to height, for aesthetic, wheel fitment, travel, corner balancing

Rather it is the ability to make SPECIFIC adjustment to height, for aesthetic, wheel fitment, travel, corner balancing etc

The advantage also includes matching the damping to the spring rates so you arent just stiff for the sake of stiff, but stiffer but in a controlled manner

The further advantage is spherical bearings instead of rubber

What im saying is **** KW, get some fortunes and SPL arms

really you don't like KWs, that is ok, might have done things differently but I am getting smarter, just some opps along the way

OptionZero he does have a point, just take the time an do your homework/research... You'll find the right setup, since there are lots of options out there...

You might want to see what other Z owners are around you and see how there setup feels...
