As with every KW coilover suspension, our suspension engineers also develop a sporty, harmonious basic setup for the vehicle-specific applications of the KW V3. In addition to tests on our KW 7-post driving dynamics test bench, we also carry out extensive test drives on country roads, the motorway and even on the Nürburgring Nordschleife, test kilometer after test kilometer, to guarantee you the perfect suspension setup. For years, the KW V3, one of the world's top aftermarket products, has been the reference for coilover suspensions. With its damper characteristics, high-quality workmanship and excellent durability, it impresses demanding sports car drivers, tuners, large and small series manufacturers such as Alpina, MTM, Manthey, Oettinger and many other well-known companies in the international automotive industry.

cutting-edge technology from motorsport
With the KW V3 you get much more than just a sporty lowering and excellent handling on all roads. It is based on our many years of experience as a chassis manufacturer and supplier in international motorsports such as in the touring car series ADAC GT Masters, FIA GT1, FIA GT3, International GT Open, WTC, VLN and also at the legendary ADAC Zurich 24h race Nürburgring.
Similar to our racing coilovers from the KW Competition range, the rebound and compression stages of the KW V3 can be adjusted independently of each other. This individual adjustment option is valued by refiners, sports car manufacturers, tuners and demanding drivers worldwide.


The perfect chassis setup for significantly more driving dynamics
If you have already made some initial performance modifications to your sporty road vehicle, it is easy to take these into account in the damper tuning with the KW V3. The patented KW valve technology for separate tuning of the rebound and compression stages allows you to individually adapt the vehicle-specific basic tuning of KW. For example, the KW bottom valve, which can be adjusted in twelve clicks in the low-speed range of the compression stage, gives you the flexibility to even take the tire characteristics of your high and ultra-high-performance road tires into account when tuning the suspension.
Thanks to the patented compression adjustment at the lower end of the stainless steel housing, you don't even need any tools. The adjustable compression adjustment with its twelve precise clicks allows you to influence the body roll and sway movements by hand without having to change the rebound damping that is optimally suited to the spring rate.
With the individually adjustable rebound adjustment of the KW V3, you can directly influence the handling and comfort through the precise click adjustment. Depending on the vehicle type, the rebound valves of the KW twin-tube dampers are adjusted at the upper end of the piston rod using an integrated adjustment wheel or the plug-on adjustment wheel included in the scope of delivery.
By increasing the traction force using the adjustment wheel, the bodywork movements are reduced. This means your car stays on track more accurately and you have even more stability at higher cornering speeds. For example, if you switch from the wheel/tire combinations approved by your car manufacturer to larger rims, you can use the KW V3 to perfectly coordinate the handling of your car and your new alloy wheels.

High-quality, individual and durable
The KW V3 is subjected to extensive quality tests during production and every single damper is checked. This is the only way we can live up to our claim of providing a guarantee of up to five years when a KW V3 coilover suspension is installed by a KW specialist dealer. Thanks to the delicate workmanship and the use of high-quality components, the KW coilover struts made of stainless steel, for example, are 100 percent rust-free and have an unlimited service life.
This means that the functionality of the stepless lowering via the dirt-resistant KW trapezoidal thread and the KW polyamide thread ring is not impaired even after years. The individual lowering with its stepless adjustment range allows you to visually emphasize the sportiness of your vehicle. A feature that is very popular in the performance-oriented tuning scene.

Setup: The individually adjustable rebound and compression damping of the KW V3
The KW V3 is the ideal accessory for performance-oriented drivers and tuning enthusiasts who place great demands on the sportiness of their vehicles. The dampers, which can be adjusted separately in rebound and compression, allow extensive damper tuning with their well-thought-out click adjustment. This makes it easy to directly influence the steering behavior, directional stability, tire grip and handling properties for safe controllability at the limit.
