Opinions on my KW V3 ride height please?

Installed the KW V3s on my M4 and looking for some opinions please. How do you think it looks, would you change the height at all? I'm running 295/30/20 rear and 265/30/20 front and no rubs yet, would you even bother going lower or leave well enough alone?

Coming from stock suspension with H&R springs, amazingly I liked how the car rode better before I spent all the money. I like a bit of a rough ride and the H&R certainly helped with that, these KWs just glide over everything and I feel like I've lost quite a bit of the roughness which I loved about the car. Maybe I need to mess with the settings etc., but from what I've read most people seem to just get back to the stock KW V3 settings as it appears those are the best settings for these out of the box.

Oh well, seems weird to complain about making the car ride better but that's me.

I think you’re sitting pretty damn nice. Still has a slight rake and looks aggressive. If you’re not rubbing leave it be.

Car is sitting awesome as-is. If you want a stiffer ride, Bilstein PSS10 would have probably given it to you based on my B16 Damptronic experience.
