Kw v1 low rear?

Well I have the kw v1 on my 2009 Bmw 328i Xdrive but the back is a bit lower than I like at its highest setting. Any ideas on fixing this?

I think it comes with a spacer you can install if you want it higher. I left mine out because I'm about the lows lol

i was worried about the same thing and someone mentioned to me about leaving the stock spring cup in rather than using the KW adjustable one and it would keep it up higher.....waiting til spring to install so i have yet to test any of this. From my understanding it would be like basically putting just a lowering spring in the rear with a new shock essentially since you would lose the height adjustment.
