Coil Spring Spacers.

My KW CS is too low in the rear, its adjusted to its max acceptable height in the rear. Rear tire is tucked under the fender a touch. I want to raise it 0.25"-0.5".

Anyone used coil spring spacers before???
Any issues using them??
NVH??

Thanks.

Coil spacers are for height, I want to add some. Has nothing to do with rolling the fenders.

You can order the spacer for KW. They fit between the top adjuster and spring. There are no issues.

aluminium spring spacer, height = 15mm 65030045
aluminium spring spacer, height = 25mm 65030046

Just add these. With an additional 0.75" or so more adjustment than the KW adjusters you current using.
