KW v2's or ST Coilovers?

E93MAC · 04-17-2012, 02:01 AM

Hey guys,

So after asking for advice in a previous thread, I've narrowed down my choice of Coilovers to KW v2's or ST's

Here are the important factors in order of preference:

1) Ride Quality
2) Looks
3) Performance and Handling

So as you can see the ride quality is the most important factor.
The e93 will also be my daily driver. It is sitting on 17" RFT's which I will replace when they run down. They are brand new right now.

Current pics of it are here: http://www.flickr.com/photos/macdidd...7629104567104/

So what do you guys think?

Thanks

Mac.

The KW V2 will give you the ability to adjust the height of your car and will also give you the ability to adjust the rebound damping rates. The rebound damping primarily, controls pitch and roll of the vehicle, especially in the low speed damping range which directly influences handling and comfort. Therefore vehicle can be adjusted to the needs of the driver, making the ride variable from comfortable to sporty and stiff, both with improved road handling. I am also running the KW V2 system in my 335i and at a medium setting, the car is more comfortable than the OEM sports suspension!
