Love my KW V3's

Thanks to Mike @ **********s, I finally got around to installing the KW V3's purchased from **********s. Day and night difference in the car, so much more planted, and way nicer to drive compared to the stock shocks/struts and Eibach springs that were on the car when I bought it. Mike is a great guy to deal with and shipping to Canada was a breeze. Thanks again.

Looks great! I always loved how lowering the car makes everything else look better, especially the wheels. Thank you for your support!

It wasn't the stock suspension I had problem with, previous to this car I had one that was all OEM sport suspension and was very happy with it. This car had the OEM sport shocks/struts with Eibach springs. Lowered the car too much and gave a very hard and unforgiving ride. My wife didn't really like riding in it with the old set up as she found it way to harsh, now she loves it. Feels more planted on the track as well. Easily the best mod I've done to the car yet. Mike @ **********s will take great care of you, as he did with me.

cheers,
dave
