Which spacers did you use? Are there any preferred brands? Thanks

Thank you. Currently the lowest setting in the front and the highest setting in the rear.

I remember reading that the KW actually go lower than the recommended max low (I think it was the one guy who had a strut leak that was discussing it)…when you say max low front, do you mean at KW max recommended, or max low possible on front? (Does any of that even make sense?)

By lowest do you mean all the threads are used up or it's been lowered at the recommend lowest setting (25mm front I believe)? Because I am lowered on KW HAS as well and I lowered the front with all the threads used up and my front right has a leak. If all the threads are used up at the front it will be noticeably lower than the recommended lowest setting from kw which might cause a leak.

Just got my KW springs installed yesterday. No spacers. Still rides pretty nice. Waiting on new tires before I take it up the mountain lol

What percent tint? Looks great! I have your twin on the way and this just made me feel better about switching from individual colors to BSM. I was so sure at one point until I wasn't

TexasEd · 01-05-2022, 08:41 AM

I have KW HAS on my M4. I could have gone much lower but decided on the current height. I believe it is about 3/4" if I remember correctly.

Spacers at 15f/12r, correct? Do you have any rubbing with that setup and height of KW HAS on the Pirellis?

Correct 15f/12r. I only drove the car home from the shop and into my garage. I was looking for the noise as Ive seen the same thing with others on Pirellis but I did not hear it on mine. I tried backing in and out of the lot with the wheel at full lock and did not hear any rubbing noise. Unfortunately I live in NJ and the weather has been absolute crap lately so the car is parked in the garage.

When you get a chance, can you measure from the bottom of the rim to the bottom of the front and rear fender? I'd like to compare to my KW HAS drop but I don't have the original height. I only know that I sit 24 1/4" on the front and 24 3/4" on the rear. Both have about a 1/4 of the threads left. I think I want to drop a bit lower.

So no rubbing when backing up toward the passenger side (wheel turned right) at full lock? I don't get it. We have the same car with the same setup, but mine rubs like a middle school hand job. It's cringeworthy.
