Nice to have product from KW this early in the life cycle. Would much rather go this route than springs. Any idea when KW would offer a solution with camber plates?
EDIT - does it go without saying that these would eliminate EDC functionality?

Is V4 the new name for the club sports or is this a new offering? |

I put KW V3's in my RS6 in 2011, put over 40k miles on them and they have been rock solid. Great quality product.
My M5 will remain stock.....I only did the lowering on the RS6 because the friggen stock system failed three times including an international recall. Was a DIY project, took a few days since I was taking my time and did not want to screw it up. Mike

KW quality’s top notch. My current F10 M5 has been on KW HAS for almost 3 years with no issues.
I’ll will be doing either HAS or V4 on my F90.

Why swap out the stock system if it is properly working? Save the money for gas and tires.

If I could afford an M5 I would wait for the KW plug and play DDC offering. Eliminating the EDC is not something that I would want to do.
Or if you get super butthurt about wheel gap get springs then the DDC could when they're released

The V4 is a V3 + separate adjustments for high-speed and low-speed compression. Clubsports typically have stiffer linear springs and front camber adjustability and are available with either V3-style or V4-style damping adjustments. |
