Factory Pre-set Damping 

The Variant 1 is KW's basic simple and effective coil over kit that is still packed with lots of features -

• Pre-set damping optimized for a blend of ride comfort and handling with less bodyroll than the standard suspension,
• Stainless steel strut/shock bodies and composite spring perches for superior corrossion resistance,
• Individually height-adjustable - Front = 25-55mm lowering; Rear = 20-50mm lowering,
• TUV approved lowering range and operation,
• Expert engineering and design for ease-of-use and long durability,

This is the ideal coil over kit for a 5-series owner who does not plan on tracking or autocrossing the car and just wants a lower, more aggressive stance and better handling. KW has set the shock damping rates to be an excellent balance for a smooth yet taut ride, and to resist bodyroll motions for better handling. The Variant 1 differs from the Street Comfort set in that it has stiffer springs and revised shock settings. If you want a sportier ride and better handling than stock the Variant 1 is an excellent choice. 

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 the factory EDC electronic adjustable shocks must have the system disabled with the optional KW EDC Cancellation Kit (or similar). This is a direct fit for cars without EDC.

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.
