The KW V5 Racing coilover kit for the Mercedes SLR McLaren (R199) and SLR McLaren Roadster is a motorsport suspension developed from KW's experience in GT and touring car racing. It uses solid-piston displacement damping, where the hydraulic oil is displaced directly into the valves rather than flowing through the piston, giving higher damping forces, a direct response and reduced cavitation.
Key Features
- Separate adjustment of compression damping and rebound damping, each in low-speed and high-speed ranges
- Aluminium uniball top mounts, with camber adjustment depending on vehicle
- High-strength linear racing springs
- Steel or aluminium alloy damper housings, vehicle-specific
- Vehicle-specific configuration including axle geometry, corner weights, spring travel and ground clearance
