KW coils .. Anyone local?
Hey .. Is anyone running a KW v1 setup locally? I was about to pull the trigger on KW v3 until I thought about its utility and now am getting more inclined towards v1 for its ease of use for a DD car. I would like to hear from KW owners locally as to what variant model they have and if they have any complaints given the fact that some roads and potholes are nasty.
If you are ok with it, would like to meet up and experience it in person... i live in Brampton (border of Mississauga) and work in Etobicoke.
Cheers !!

right now, I am 12F/10R. Its a little too hard for my taste but I will change it once the weather become hotter. My rebound is more toward stiff.
It rides okay, but once you get into like a bumpy road, you will feel uncomfortable.
I notice you have the G2, is your offset aggressive or more toward to conserverative.

eeshh ... 12/10 is actually pretty stiff from what i have been reading so far.
My offsets are semi-aggressive actually. +35 all around with 9.5F/10.5R. The fronts you could call a bit conservative but they dont tuck in or anything. Just perfectly flush. Rears have a bit of poke which "am hoping" wont rub once i drop, else, i will need to beat the crap out of my brand new Michelin PSS (245F/275R) with negative camber
PM me your number if you can ...

LOL. yea i know, I was testing it with the hotchi sway. I just wanna see wht the G can do. haha
I assume ur G2 is 19? If so, I really wanna see how it looks in person.
To be honest, if it rub, just rasie it up. If not, then camber it. your offset should be fine for 25" from ground surface to fender.

Yep .. 19" in Type II
To be quite honest, I was very skeptical about 19 until i laid my eyes on these puppies.
Now am even more content cause right now am at 40/35 profile on tires and I already feel the bumps can be a bit jarring (it maybe cause of the "still" cold weather). I can't even imagine what it would be with a 35/30 profile on a 20 honestly. I have also felt a difference (butt dyne) in acceleration cause of the lighter wheels.
Am most likely going to be there for the next meet.. hopefully lowered and nicely stanced by then
