KW Coilovers Where to buy in MA, NH So ME

Has anyone in Mass, NH southern ME installed KW's? if so where did they buy them and who installed them? I have turner near me but they said the want to sell me PSS9's and won't install KW's. Doesn't make sense, but anyway. Anyone know?

I did call Turner again and they said they would work with me on the install and potentially get them for me. Kevin did try and talke me into the pss10's I just don't need anything that extreme and expensive. I think I'm going to go with V1 or Street comforts. I just need to figure out what is best for my set up.

If you get the street comforts, I want a ride!! Ive had my eye on them because of their ride height.

Actually I doubled checked with **********s and they said the Street comforts are only for the sedan I guess and or coupe because someone else had put them on their coupe. As for me I'm out of luck because they don't make them for the vert. However the V1s are for the vert so I probably will get them unless something else better for the same money comes up, ie BMW performance suspension for the vert.

Hey Tim,

Yeah I made that phone call for you to KW North America to double check and the Street Comforts have no E88 application. Let me know when you're ready to move on that V1!

I had Mario at VSR in Bow NH install KW's in my 335i. They also put in UUC sway bars and a clutch style LSD. They do great work on all BMW's new and old. I travel from RI to get work done there.

I would get BC coilovers, much better than any others. I have installed on many 335i's so far. I also have scales so I can corner balance if you are interested.

they look nice, however no product listing for the e88, that's usually my problem as I have the vert and there's not much out in the market for us vert owners.
