Ride height issue.
The Bilstein PSS9's would be a good choice because you can always have them custom valved later on down the road. They are around $1400.00. I have installed a set, they are really a good setup.
They look pretty good, although I'm temped just to wait and save for some KW's. I've always wanted them so i might as well get them.
I reinstalled the 6k springs this afternoon.

the ride hight is much better. I've only taken it for a quick spin but it feels more tame, the steering isn't as sharp but it's still good.

FWIW, the KW V3's don't have separate ride height and pre-load adjustments.
That can be a big freaking deal when it comes time for corner balancing.
This will result in different amounts of spring pre-load on each corner. Weird **** happens at the bleeding limit with that.

real race cars have zero rate helper springs and no pre-load, not sure where you came up with that nonsense since the KWs have the same threaded perch system as every high end racing shock?
seems like you've been reading too many JDM magazines or something ....
