KW V1 Coilovers

Sporty handling combined with outstanding looks. With factory pre-configured damping.


The KW V1 coilover kit is our entry model for more driving pleasure with an attractive and individually adjustable lowering. Due to its high-quality finish, the use of struts made from stainless steel, corrosion resistant springs and bump stops as well as compatible components stands for long driving pleasure - not just the car's life.


Continuous lowering


With the KW V1 coilover you can achieve maximum lowering in the tested adjustment range. Depending on vehicle model this varies between 30 to 70mm or 50 to 90mm. Even after years you can adjust the height quickly and easily due to the dirt resistant trapezoid thread and composite collar. Lowering at the front axle is made using our one piece composite height adjuster, on the rear axle this is the same unless the car has a seperate spring and shock absorber. The supplied rear height adjuster sits either above or below the rear spring.


The benchmark for tuning fans


KW V1 coilover satisfies the sporty driver with its harmonic basic setup. Our engineers develop for each vehicle a specific damper setup and spring rate to increase the driving pleasure with optimal balance of sportiness and practicality. In the end, you don't buy any coilover, but a KW coilover which has been developed specifically for your type of vehicle. KW as a manufacturer uses only its own resources, high quality components and the same damper technology as high-volume manufacturers. With the KW V1 Coilovers rolling motions of the body will be reduced during compression and you benefit from genuine directness and sportier handling while driving.
