E39 Wagon KW V1 Coil Overs:Front Lowering Range: 35-65mm
Rear Lowering Range: 30-60mm
All of the renowned KW engineering in a introductory height-adjustable kit.
The KW Variant 1 Coilover Kit (V1) offers a ready-to-go solution out of the box. V1 suspension kits offer adjustable ride height combined with preset damping levels, so the chassis-specific tuning is already set by KW engineers. Not everyone needs or wants to adjust damping levels, so for those who simply want adjustable ride height with dampers set to match the spring rates for sporty yet practical use, the V1s are pre-tuned based on KW’s extensive experience with your specific chassis.
KW has a strong reputation for delivering long-term reliability and performance due to their corrosion-resistant, stainless steel “inox-line.” Variant 1 coilovers may be considered KW’s entry-level model that allow you to give you car an great look with custom ride height, but they’re also designed for pure, trouble-free driving pleasure.
The dirt-resistant trapezoid thread and composite collar mean that you’ll always be able to quickly and easily adjust your ride height when needed, regardless of how many years or seasons they’ve been installed. Adjusting ride height is a simple task, with one-piece composite height adjusters on the front dampers. The rear suspension retains the original air bag system but includes new ride height links to settle the ride height. New rear shocks are included as well.
Fitment Notes: KW Variant coil overs are installed with non-EDC upper strut and shock mounts* and hardware for an easy and straight-forward install. Depending on ride height setting and wheel/tire sizes wheel spacers may be required on the front wheels.
* - Cars with factory self-leveling or EDC electronic suspension require 525i/528i/530i non-EDC/non-SLS front and rear mounts and hardware. See Related Items below.

Shipping note: All KW Suspension kits include a $95 flat rate shipping cost, included in the price shown. This is because each kit is made and shipped from KW's factory in Fichtenberg, Germany, and this fee covers this transportation. KW dealers have the choice to either include this $95 fee in the price of the item, or as a flat rate fee during checkout, but the final cost to you is the same either way. This ensures fair and equal pricing between Authorized KW dealers.
