KW V3s just installed
I just installed the KW V3s on my F30 for Bimmerfest.
The installation was easy and straight forward with god instructions from KW. It took me 6 hours and I'm not what you would call a good DIY mechanic. The ride is better than expected and what I would call street focused but ready for some track fun. What I love most about the new suspension is that it feels so supple and what I feel the BMW sport suspension should be. Even at a low ride height, 22" front and back, there seems to be plenty of travel. The ride is quiet which is not normal for performance suspension. It's very welcome as this is my street car and I still just want to cruise sometimes. BMW-F30-EC-7-silver by ApexRaceParts, on Flickr |

The bumper is low but I only have to be a little careful to avoid rubbing. I'm a little surprised I don't rub more.
My ride height is a little low - 22" with 18s - for everyday but it looks great so I don't know if I'm going to bring it up. If I do it will only be about 1/4". They are 18s. Pandi, I like your wheels. I wanted the anthracites but there weren't any in stock |
