Did you have them revalved for the increase in spring rates? I am interested if they can be revalved but thought there was some talk about KW no longer allowing for revalves except for rebuilds to factory spec.

Thank you,
Mark

They weren't revalved for these spring rates, however these rates are not far off from what they came with from KW. I've spoken to KW directly, and Harold at HP Autoworks and many others have had great success running varying spring rates on these dampers. If we were talking an extreme setup like 700lbs front and 1000lbs rear, I wouldn't advise it, but 450/750 is nothing.

Both my e82 and e90 were sorted, smooth and extremely capable on this setup. I hold platform records (or close) at a few of the tracks out here on this very setup.

Quite easy to call KW NA and ask if they could revalve for those rates. 1-800-445-3767

Thanks and best of luck to you either way!
