Thanks in advance, Dee-Jay.

So far with the pre set settings from KW the ride in my opinion is more planted. It does not bounce and jump anywhere like stock. With what little seat time I have with the current set up on the road I can tell you in 100% honesty I find the KW V3 suspension to have a better Daily Driver ride then OEM. Nice thing is you can get a the car to have less rake up front and still have a close to OEM height if you choose. I never slam my cars so my suspension which I will post a few photos tomorrow has a excellent amount of ground clearance. I highly recommend this modification for the 1M. Definitely a noticeable improvement.
