The KW HAS Kit can be found on the IND Web Store

- 4 Lowering Springs
- F/R Spring Perch Adjustment Tools
- Height Adjustable Spring Perches

How compliant is the ride compared to OEM ZCP?

I have...from IND, installed there

It has been about 2 months with them on Chicago roads. A mix of city broken construction roads and highway/suburban smooth roads.

It feels similar to stock, a little stiffer but nothing most people would notice if you didnt tell them you had changed the suspension a bit. I can still tell the difference between the three EDC modes, but tend to keep it in Sport since I have read this is the more properly valved setting for the drop I added.

Coming from a previous 335i with koni fsd/eibach combo, this ride is much more compliant. I would recommend it without any hesitations. I have put about 2500 miles on them.

if you have any questions feel free to Pm me, happy to answer

Thanks for chiming in.

Quick questions:
  1. Is your EDC non ZCP spec?
  2. Do you ever use EDC soft anymore or does the new spring rates render it useless?

1) I have ZCP spec EDC
2) You can definitely still use the soft setting, its not as soft as it used to be, but its notably softer than when you have it set to sport (the three settings are pretty distinct)

Sorry to nag...

Handling & Performance aside.

Could you say the following for ride, comfort & compliance during normal driving:
  • KW Sleeve + EDC/Comfort = OEM ZCP + EDC/Normal
  • KW Sleeve + EDC/Normal = OEM ZCP + EDC/Sport

TIA!
