Who is riding on KW v1?

[K9]

girls and boys and men and womens who are riding on a set of kw v1 under your golf, gti o dsg no mathers. ?
few questions.

are they bumpy as joms?
will they sit good when lowering on 18 or 19"?
quality?
have they come with a model that fits both 50 & 55mm struts?
does a audi a3 2012 tdi have the same struts and coilover setup as a 2005 golf gti dsg?

I had Joms on my old fabia and V1's on my golf and they are definitely not as bumpy as Joms  , the ride is as good if not better than my 87k old OEM suspension but handles much better.

There are also 2 other cars in my household that use them and they're great, very well made and haven't had any issues with about 40k combined.

This is how they sit on my 19's






This is with my rears all the way down and the front most of the way down.

I'm not sure about what will fit etc.. But I'm sure somebody will.

nice ride you got there!
love the stace it got. how much have your dampers and springs been covered in miles ( km ) as i live in EU?
as i'm buying a set that has covered max 5.000miles.
are they max lowered rear and front?

[dansmith180]

Cheers, they've covered 20,000km and have been excellent, rears all the way down and front about 75% of the way down.

guess 5k miles wont hurt me then :) are there much mathers if its a dsg or manual? and are there a model that fits moth 50 and 55mm struts :O?

Does anyone know how low I can take my gti on the standard shocks? I'm just looking at putting springs on not coilovers
