KW Inox Variant 3 Coilovers provide state-of-the-art technology for motor sports or simply better performance on the road. The separate and independently adjustable rebound and compression damping allows for an individual suspension setup for different uses and preferences. This unique, patented system with its two-stage valves allows a rebound damping adjustment (comfort) and a compression adjustment (driving dynamics) in the low-speed range while the high-speed range, which controls the driving safety, is fixed.
With the KW Variant 3 Coilovers you will get much more than just sporty lowering and excellent driving behaviour on all roads. The kit is the product of KW’s experience as a suspension manufacturer and supplier for international motorsports such as the touring car series ADAC GT Masters, FIA GT1, FIA GT3, International GT Open, WTC, VLN and the legendary ADAC Zurich 24h-race Nürburgring.
Similar to the racing coilovers from the KW Competition program, the KW Variant 3 Coilovers can be adjusted independently in compression and rebound damping. This individual adjustment possibilities are appreciated by sports car manufacturers, tuners and drivers worldwide, allowing the perfect suspension setup for more driving pleasure
The patented KW-valve technology for separate adjustment of rebound and compression damping allows you to individually setup your suspension. The adjustable KW bottom valve adjusts the low-speed range of the compression level with twelve clicks. You don’t need any adjusting tools because of the patented compression adjuster at the lower end of the stainless steel housing. The adjustable compression damping with its twelve exact clicks allows you to manually influence body roll, without having to change the spring rate which optimally matches the rebound.
The rebound valves of the KW twin-tube dampers are either adjusted at the upper end of the piston rod with an integrated adjustment wheel or a twist-adjuster (that will be included with the kit). By increasing the rebound force the body movements are reduced; your car will stay in line and you will have more stability at increased corner speed.
A KW Variant 3 Coilover Kit is also the perfect choice for someone looking to put larger wheels and tyres on their vehicle. With a KW Coilover Variant 3 Coilover Kit you will be able to adjust the car's handling so that it works perfectly with your larger wheels.
