KW-V3 Ride Height Question

[n2fooz]

I have a 2022 M3LR with 20in Forgestar Square setup. When I bought the car I told myself that I wasn't going to modify it, especially not lower it. Between the fact that I've now changed the 19" wheels to the 20s and the stock ride is pretty firm as it is, I'm now considering The KW-V3's. I want a very slight drop of no more that 1". My question is, would I be better off adding their 15mm coil spacers to be able to be in the 3/4" to 1" drop range but be a little further into the shock preload than if I just left them alone and dialed in the minimum 1" drop?
Please don't advise MPP Comfort or some other shock/coil option. If I do this, I will be going with the KW-V3.

Opps forgot to mention. I will NEVER track the car. This is for looks and street driving.

@MountainPass I see you reacted to my post. FYI.. I would totally go with your setup but I may have a chance at a KW deal that I can't pass up

No one was talking to you and we didn't want you to feel excluded

No I never got the KW, so far I've stuck with stock suspension.

Why? Stock is good enough?

When I bought my car I promised myself I was going to keep it stock. I've lowered or raised almost every vehicle I've ever owned and I wanted to leave this one alone. I was convinced by a bad influence to do wheels LOL. I still don't really want to lower it much if at all, but I almost had a deal that was too good to pass up. The deal never materialized so yes, stock is good.

Raising or lowering cars can make them look better, however it is a sunk cost that usually will never be recovered. Many will be happy when Tesla offers an air suspension on their 3/Y like on their S/X.

You mean future buyers/dealers would never pay extra for the suspension upgrade and buyers will think the car has been aggressively driven etc?

I'm very familiar with the ramifications of modifying a vehicle. This is what I sold when I got my Tesla. (the Sponsorship stickers were long gone).

Beautiful car. is that ride height on the skyline for the track or for road?

 

[n2fooz]

It was for street and shows (SEMA and CES a couple times each). It was my daily driver for about 3 years, then just my fun car. Can't track a car with hundreds of pounds of audio equipment

If you're still intersected in KW V3s, feel free to message us. We can potentially work out a deal.
Our cars has been running V3s and it has been A1 on all fronts
