Kw has vs emmanual design

I'm looking to go a little lower in front than the Matt schnell springs I have now but am torn between kw has and emmanual design. I know the ed springs should go lower in the front than kw but a lot of pics with cars that have the kw look pretty low. Does anyone have experience with both springs? I would do kw v3's but want to keep my adaptive suspension. Thanks

The lowest HAS kit on the market is the H&R
The lowest springs ED

Are you running 19" or 20"? I would go with ED. Install is super easy and you don't need to mess with high adjustment.

I'm on 20" competition wheels. Do the kw actually go lower than the advertised 1.2" ? The kw looks a lot lower than my ms springs and the ms springs are suppose to be a 1.1" drop. I didn't realize h&r had a has option.

The KW V2 is lower than the old V1 Version. Yes, KW is lower than MS but not lower than ED. But as said...H&R HAS is the lowest setting with springs only.

Wink

To be honest, do you really still need the features of your EDC?

If not take V3 or V4 for daily driving fun and more performance even on nasty country roads. If you want to unleash your car on a racetrack take KW Clubsport 2-way or 3-way. (3-way CS and V4 sharing the 3-way valve technology but different spring rates and valves settings, ... http://blog-int.kwautomotive.net/the...all-selection/)

And if you still want to have your EDC our KW DDC plug&play is the Gamechanger. So ask here in the forum some DDC or Clubsport owners what they think ...
