Hey, guys, anyone know the max drop for KW v3's? Some websites show 2.0" front and rear but that seems incorrect to me. Some people's car's I see pictures of dropped on KW coils, are pretty low. I am about to switching to them soon and I am currently dropped 3.6" up front and 2.5" in the rear. Can I get back to this height with the V3's?
The KWs seem to be dropping pretty low, so that shouldn't be a problem although 3.6" drop in front is super slammed. You have pics of your current setup?
I'm pretty sure you will hit the height your lookin for. Thats not far off from where I'm at and I have my Kw v3's at the highest setting in the rear and matched to height on the front.

You still have more to go? I might lower the front a bit. I am set with the rear.
Well, I want it to ride like OEM but not be so soft that the car is getting hit everywhere. I am stance coils at almost full stiff (2 away up front and 4 away in rear) and it's way too bouncy for my liking.

Might try some Swift springs that fit your Stance coils that are firmer spring rates rather than having to buy new KWs, would be worth looking into IMO, and that front drop from your pics doesn't look nearly as slammed as I was thinking
Jounce is caused by the shocks inability to control the spring's oscillation so adding even firmer springs would make it worse. I think he's running 13k/8k true type so that's pretty firm. I don't really believe the Swift hype either. A spring rated at 13k (accurately) is going to need the same amount of force to compress no matter who makes it. Long-term performance? Sure, I'll buy into that.
It's really more likely his Stance dampers were not valved correctly or just wore so fast they are no longer in tolerance (pressurized gas chamber leak?). I'd avoid that company and all the like dampers made in the same Factory under different names. Those include everything made in the Taiwan, Chinese or Korean factories.
