Can u guys describe in more detail the difference between w and w/I electronic damping control? How does it work? Does that depend on what susp we ordered from the factory?
Super stoked on these!

Wow, it's amazing how quickly the manufacturers come out with these products to be first out in the market...
But, and I hate to be the downer here...it makes you think how much time/quality goes into making these things and the R&D done to ensure they perform better, provide better handling and control and better quality....and all in the short months the vehicle has been out. Hmmmmm.... |

A company like KW has probably got a pretty good idea what's going to work before they fit the first set to the new model. |

Gawd, so incredibly gorgeous from the side and back, until you see the front end. The front just kills it, who ever was in charge of designing the f30 and or e90 front end should be flogged.

Running the v2 on my e90 and the v3 on the my late z4m. They have the best ride for the streets hands down. Although I'd much appreciate it if they would update to a mono tube vs their antiquated twin tube shock design. Meh, but what do I know, they're the ones with access to a shock dyno
Anybody, know why they stuck with twin tubes?

Is it just me, or do those wheels look awesome on the F30?
