KW clubsport 2-way best setting for comfort

I have a KW clubsport 2-way suspension and I am looking to put the recommend settings towards comfort?

Anyone knows what best campers setting, height..etc to configure to get best comfort out of it since I don't track car? My current settings is more harsh than I like it for DD.

Very subjective question unfortunately. Where are you located? I'm sure there is a performance shop located somewhere nearby that can give you a proper corner balance of the car to your desired ride height that would be comfortable for you. At that point, you can then tinker with the dampening until you reach your desired result. At the end of the day, KW CS are a track focused coiler so you may not end up with a ride that you would consider to be "comfortable."


Here's the instruction manual: Page 3-4 https://www.kwsuspensions.com/extras...ea68577032.pdf

The link above is for V3. Here's a link for clubsport setup. Handling characteristics are subjective as stated above. I may like 6 clicks from soft up front and 8 out back on compression and 6/9 on rebound. My roads may be better or worse than yours and I may prefer a firmer ride than others. Even at that setting it's still around 60% on the firm side. Tweak it, make your adjustments and take notes. That way you'll learn what you like and don't like and tune in your car the way you like it. If I'm tinkering I'll make adjustments of 2 clicks at a time and only compression or rebound, not both. The good part is adjustments are simple and quick to do. Just remember it's not recommended to drive the car with the adjustments at full soft or full stiff (valves open/closed).

I believe i'm at
8 clicks from full stiff front
10 clicks from full stiff rear

3 for rebound front and rear.

I did the MRF recommended settings (posted in a thread you'll need to search for) and it was nice and responsive but for double duty it was pretty aggressive as a daily.
