The KW clubsports with monoball top mounts will transmit more sound/vibrations through the chassis than the V3's which use the stock rubber-mounted top hats. Their shouldn't be any significant clunking or noises, but they will be stiffer than stock/V3's.

Spring Rates:

Clubsport: 540lb/Progressive
V3: Progressive/Progressive

The clubsport has stiffer front springs relative to the V3 which improves turn-in and front grip by reducing body roll. BMWs use a strut-type front suspension which (as the car rolls) you lose camber in the tire, thus working the outside of the tire more which causes it to roll over onto the sidewall if you have stock camber.

We (FX Motorsports Development) sell KW's and have a lot of track experience with them.
