Adjustable Rebound & Compression Damping
Want full control? The KW V3 gives you multiple settings for both rebound and compression. You have full access over ride comfort and handling to dial in that perfect setup. Race teams rely on adjustments to get that perfect lap time and having shock controls at your fingertips is key. KW V3 features -
Whether you track the car often or only use it for backroad carving the V3 will give you the tools to set up an ideal handling condition. You can crank it up for smooth and fast surfaces or soften it for city or rough roads. Since each shock is 2-way adjustable you can alter the front-rear balance to account for brake dive or squat during power application coming out of the corner. You are in total control!
Coil over suspensions are better engineered suspension options compared to a standard shock + spring package. Since the springs and shocks in a coil over are designed by a team of engineers to work together, there is much better suspension travel and more precisely tuned specifications for spring and shock rates. Using separate shock and spring specs may result in premature coil bind or shock bottoming. And most coil over kits offer more features than the traditional packages. Coil overs are also more useful when larger wheels/tires are used because you can precisely set the ride heights to clear the new tires.
Fitment Note: Wheel spacers may be required depending on wheel/tire sizing and ride height setting.
Cars with EDC will require the EDC Cancellation Kit (not currently available). Cars without EDC do not need any extra materials.
Lifetime warranty!

A coilover is a suspension system that combines a shock absorber with a coil spring wrapped around it. This setup has become widely popular in the automotive aftermarket due to its ability to offer a lower ride height and excellent handling compared to standard shocks.
The KW V3 coilovers stand out with their dual dampening technology, making them suitable for both street and track use. With separate adjustments for rebound and compression dampening, drivers can fine-tune their suspension setup for optimal handling and performance. The patented two-stage valve system allows adjustments for comfort (rebound damping) and driving dynamics (compression damping) in the low-speed range while maintaining fixed settings for high-speed control for enhanced driving safety.
Key Features of the KW V3 Coilovers:
Dual dampening technology with separate rebound and compression adjustments Stainless Steel "Inox-Technology" for durability TüV-approved lowering range High-quality components for long-lasting performance Infinitely variable rebound damping adjustment 14-way adjustable compression damping Unique and precise damping force adjustment Comprehensive documentation for easy installation and setup This V3 coilover system is compatible with all X3M/X4M models and comes with an EDC-cancellation kit to prevent warning lights and drivetrain malfunctions after installation.
KW was founded in 1995, employing only three employees and selling their systems to a small market. Today, KW is represented everywhere and has approximately 200 employees in five locations. KW is currently the epitome of premium components in suspension tuning and refinement. KW offers its customers the largest suspension program worldwide and each component is tested using their state-of-the-art seven-post drive dynamics test.
MINI R55 R56 R57 ST XTA Performance Coilover System - Adjustable Damping 18220850 offers unmatched driving dynamics with its advanced KW damping technology. This high-performance coilover system allows for precise adjustment of both ride stiffness and comfort, thanks to its externally adjustable damping settings and aluminum uniball top mounts for camber and caster fine-tuning.
Adjustable Rebound Damping
The KW Variant 2 gives shock rebound control to give you more options in fine-tuning the handling of the car. The V2 includes the same features of the V1 kit, including -
This kit is an excellent compromise between a fully-adjustable V3 suspension and the basic V1 street kit. It's great for someone who does not want to make complicated and time-consuming shock adjustments. Just dial in the rebound for more grip and less body motions. Set it back for a compliant street ride.
