If you change to bigger wheels than the wheel / tire combination which came from the car manufacturer, you can adapt the rebound damping to the driving behaviour of your car and your new alloy rims perfectly. Or you can reduce the rebound forces with a few clicks to gain even more comfort - just as you have always desired from a sport suspension.
Lowering of 10 to 40 mm
The KW Street Comfort coilovers made in stainless steel technology inox-line enable a vehicle-specific lowering within the tested adjustment range of 10 to 40 mm.

As a an enthusiastic car owner you already know that your car’s suspension system is a multiplicity of things including the tires, tire air, springs, shock absorbers, struts, anti-sway bars and linkages and that the job of the suspension system is to support road handling as well as ride quality. In order to accomplish these goals you need a suspension system that accomplishes the task of keeping your car’s wheels on the road where they belong, smoothing out your ride, keeping your car under your control and protecting your car by limiting the impact of unfavorable road conditions. As an extra bonus the right suspension system can provide a more comfortable ride for you and your passengers and can protect cargo you may be carrying. So needless to say you do not want a suspension system that has worn components but you might also want an aftermarket suspension component that helps to enhance your car’s performance. And it goes without saying that you want to buy these parts from a manufacturer you can feel confident will give you a dependable and state of the art product and KW automotive is just such a company and their illustrious history and proven successes will lead you to agree.
Although KW automotive was started as a small company in 1992 it quickly grew through innovations like the KW coilover suspension born in 1996 and they have been on a forward track ever since. One can only conclude that this is due to their desire to offer you only the best and to do what it takes to make that happen.
A prime example of that is their development of an avant-garde test facility in 2006, a 7-post drive dynamics test facility able to simulate a disparity of race track conditions and one of only 15 such facilities around the world with the majority of these used by Formula 1 teams. So you can see how dedicated KW is to making the best possible product and with this kind of technology KW is afforded phenomenal opportunities to test applications for both the automotive and motorsports industry.
This desire is what led to the development of its brand new impressive dampening system known as the “Variant 3” with its patented double adjustable technology and “inox-line” that can be tuned to the driver’s preferences or vehicle modifications. This unique design offers you the ability to increase compression damping force in order to optimize grip from the tires, improve cornering behavior and reduce squat without affecting the rebound damping characteristics
But being content with what they have already accomplished is not the way of KW and for this reason KW introduced the first suspension control unit for vehicles with standard air suspension that can be continually lowered by use of a smartphone application. KW has accomplished what few in the industry have been able to do and that is to offer its customers a preeminent suspension program that includes an outstanding array of products ranging from springs over sports suspensions to coilover suspensions. It is no wonder KW suspension successfully entered the motorsports arena and can boast that their products are used by racing teams worldwide.
All of the aforementioned accomplishments and others are why KW can proudly tout that they are represented worldwide, and now employ in the neighborhood of two hundred people in as many as five locations and that their headquarters in Fichtenberg, Germany is an impressive 247,500 square feet.
