best place for Kw V3's?

Post by Mos6689 » Mon Aug 09, 2021 7:34 pm

Ok I have an answer. Thought I’d post it here for reference in case someone else is confused as I was. So for maximum ride height you set measurement A on the fronts to 70mm & on the rear to 20mm. There will still be remaining thread but do not exceed maximum recommended measurements. Minimum ride height is 40mm front & 0mm rear.

In my opinion the factory rebound and bump settings are quite stiff, and for those who are about to drive long highway stints, I'll recommend switching to these settings:
Rebound -top knob- Front: 12, Rear: 15
Bump -bottom knob- Front: 6 , Rear: 10
It feels like driving on clouds in comparison. :oops:

The settings are the number of clicks anticlockwise starting from max clockwise/stiffest/+. There are a total of 16 clicks for rebound and 12 for bump.

Found the specs, what size spacer are you running on the front? From memory, no spacer at the rear with 10" and ET25. Fantastic pictures, thank you for sharing.

Sorry for the delay but here are the specs:
Front: 18”x8,5” et38. (Tyre: 235x40)
Rear: 18”x10” et25 (Tyre: 265x35)
No spacers required but there’s room for 12mm with >-2 camber up front. No room for spacers rear. :thumbsup:
