Some Shots w/ KWv3's

Ive had these on for a while, but had some time today and snapped a few photos. Sorry the car isnt perfectly clean as I have has no time to wash it lately.

The drop height is closest to how the RD Sport springs drop would look like.

Corner balanced after ~500 miles with me sitting inside so the drivers side might appear slightly higher than the passenger side. I am running a little more negative camber on all 4 wheels. Also, I am running 12mm spacers all around until my new wheels come in.

Enjoy.

Looks good! That drop height is perfect IMO. Very subtle yet enough to make the car look slightly more aggressive

Absolutly no rubbing at all. I was actually 10mm lower when I first got the KWs on front and rear and had no rubbing then also. Then I had them raised slightly during the corner balance for the final ride height.

I have a friend with 15mm all around on H&Rs with no running either. Keep in mind we are both on stock wheels and tires. But I don't anticipate any rubbing with my new set up either.

Sorry the pics aren't too clean and crisp. I'll definitely update these once I get the car cleaned.

Thats what I initially thought too. But I figured a little more room for compression would help me avoid some understeer.

Unfortunately you'll have about 4-6 weeks to figure it out while HRE manufacturers the wheels

I actually might go a little lower once I get the new wheels in. Then I gotta corner balance and get alignment again
