Description
The KW Variant 3 offers the perfect combination of improved driving dynamics, everyday practicality, and adjustment possibilities. In addition to being able to adjust the ride height, the Variant 3 coilovers feature patented technology that allows you to adjust the rebound with 16 clicks, and compression damping with 12 clicks separately and independently of each other, giving you complete control over both phases of the damper stroke. Each set comes preset by our engineers to their recommended damper settings right out of the box giving you a great foundation to start with while also allowing you to tailor the vehicles behavior to your tastes.
Cutting-edge motorsports technology -or more performance on the road. Like every suspension product developed by KW automotive and manufactured in Germany, the KW Variant 3 Coilover suspension kit also provides a significant improvement on the road. Thanks to the high-quality dampers, springs, and elastomer spring elements, pitching and rolling movements during load changes such as evasive maneuvers, cornering, acceleration, and braking are significantly reduced.
The braking distances are also shortened. Thanks to improved support and feedback, drivers not only feel more confident but driving in everyday life is improved. With compression and rebound stage damping, which can be set separately and independently of each other, the damper setup can be customized to your personal driving preferences or vehicle changes such as weight, tire characteristics, or altered vehicle rigidity. True performance optimization is only possible with this unique, patented system. For example, this allows the compression damping force to be increased and get more grip from the tires, to improve cornering behavior and reduce squat without simultaneously altering the rebound stage damping which is optimally matched to the spring rate? a scenario that results in reduced grip and the associated loss of performance. The KW Variant 3 INOX-LINE coilover kit is the ideal tool for performance-oriented drivers and experienced tuning enthusiasts who place a strong emphasis on the overall performance of their suspension.
No matter where in the world, gearheads, automobile manufacturers and reputable tuners rely on our KW coilovers made in Germany. With an application list comprising more than 4,600 options KW guarantees an outstanding selection backed by our Limited Lifetime Warranty.
