What makes KW coilovers different?

Aspects KW Suspension coilovers Other Brands

Materials

 KW coilovers are made of aluminum. High-quality KW springs and components guarantee corrosion resistance and durability.

Plain steel or cheaper alloys wear out and rust more quickly.
Durability Tested according to TÜV standards – KW coilover systems are reliable both on the road and on the track. An excellent choice for racing coilovers enthusiasts. Less testing, so may have a shorter service life under intensive conditions.
Handling Adjustable coilover shocks allow you to adjust the height and damping. For example, KW street comfort coilovers offer the ideal balance of comfort and stability. Limited adjustment range and less control.
Origin All KW auto parts, including KW suspension parts, are designed and manufactured in Germany. Each component is assembled by hand. Production is often outsourced to cheaper countries with less stringent controls.
Technology KW DDC Plug & Play and adjustable suspension kit technologies allow electronic control of damping. Universal coilovers, front and rear coilovers for professional use are also available. Simple coilover kits without advanced electronic or adjustment features.

FAQ

What do coilovers do?

Coilovers are advanced suspension systems that combine shock absorbers and springs into a single unit. They allow you to adjust the height, stiffness, and handling balance of your car. Unlike standard suspension, coilover suspension gives the driver greater control, both on the track and in everyday use. Among the most important benefits of coilovers are more precise handling, less body roll, and better aerodynamics.

Are coilovers worth it?

If you seek better car handling, stability, and aesthetics, coilovers are definitely worth the investment. Although they cost more than conventional shock absorbers or springs, KW coilovers allow you to adjust the suspension to your individual needs. In addition, due to their durability and reliability, they often last longer, so they pay for themselves in the long run for both everyday and sports cars.

Coilovers vs springs – how do they differ?

The main difference between coilovers vs springs is in their adjustability. Springs only allow you to lower the height of the car, while coilovers give you complete control – you can adjust both the height and the stiffness of the shock absorbers.

How do coilovers work?

Coilover shocks and springs work together – the shock absorber absorbs shocks, while the spring maintains the height and stiffness of the body. Adjustable coilovers allow you to adjust the compression and rebound of the shock absorber, so the car’s chassis can be adapted for both everyday use and racing. 

Do coilovers replace shocks and struts?

Yes. Coilovers replace both shock absorbers and struts. They combine both functions into one system, resulting in a seamless, stiffer, and more precise chassis.

Do coilovers lower your car?

Coilovers allow you to adjust the height of the car, so you can both subtly reduce the gaps between the wheels and the body and achieve a low, sporty profile. Unlike lowering springs, KW coilovers allow you to maintain the correct suspension geometry even at a lower height, so driving comfort does not deteriorate.

 

How much do coilovers cost?

KW suspension price depends on the series and car model you choose. For example, in the Opsholders.com store, basic coilovers start at around €800, while more advanced versions can reach €4,000-5,000.

What are the best coilover brands?

While there are many coilover brands, one of the best names often mentioned and recommended by Opsholders is KW Automotive. This manufacturer has been developing performance coilovers for over 25 years, which are tested both in laboratories and on race tracks.

Which car models are KW coilovers suitable for?

KW coilovers are offered for many car models, and the most popular products among customers are:

  • BMW E36 coilovers,
  • BMW E46 coilovers,
  • E90 coilovers,
  • E92 coilovers,
  • Honda Civic coilovers,
  • Tesla Model 3 coilovers,
  • S13 coilovers,
  • S2000 coilovers.

However, this is only part of the selection: you can find the full range in the KW Suspension category on the Opsholders website.

How many miles do coilovers last?

Properly maintained KW coilovers can last up to 100,000 km (62,000 miles) or more, depending on the driving conditions, frequency of adjustment, and installation quality. For example, KW coilovers from the Variant series (V1 coilovers, V2 coilovers, V3 coilovers, V4 coilovers and V5 coilovers) are designed for everyday or sporty driving and can maintain excellent performance under normal road conditions. Meanwhile, KW Street V2 Comfort Coilovers and KW DDC Adaptive Suspension Kits feature a softer setting. That means they often last even longer, as the shock absorbers are less stressed and the system remains comfortable. The KW Clubsport and KW Racing Coilovers (including V3-V7 Racing and SP Racing) are completely different. These coilovers are designed for racing, and can therefore withstand extremely high loads, but may require more frequent maintenance (that depends on the intensity of use.
