Coilover Options?! Need Help

Hello Everyone,

I've been looking for the past few days around the forum for coilovers for my 2014 C63 507 Edition but I cant seem to find anything else besides KW V3's. Just need a precise answer or a list of what other coilovers are made for my car.

Thanks!

KW V3's probably the overall best system for our cars.

H&R Also makes a setup for the C63 as well.

Hmmm there may be 1 or 2 other companies but these 2 are the most commonly used on here.

I called H&R earlier on today and they said they don't make coilovers for the 2014 C63 Coupe. Hmm thats strange. Do you have a link I can see?

Thanks

Kw v3 is a must if they havnt changed the original c63 suspension on the 507. U dont need any other brands tbh. Great for daily driving.

Bilstein makes PSS10s for he W204 but they are listed for non AMG models. Anyone know how'd they work on a C63? Not sure if the rates are that different on the progressive springs. They are 9 and 10- way adjustable for comp. and rebound. And they are cheaper than the KWs. Are the V3 KWs low and high speed comp. adjustable or just one level of comp. adjustment?

Kw

I finally had the chance to install my kw v3 yesterday. I don't know why I waited so long. Initial impressions are very positive. The ride is less jarring than the OEM suspension. Bumps are better absorbed. Body roll is eliminated when running the slalom course of Detroit potholes. I'm still on the winter tires so feedback on performance driving will have to wait.

I installed KW V3's on my 2010 about a month ago and I love them. Can't speak of the other brands of course. I purchased mine for less than typical retail through a forum vendor who was (is?) offering a decent discount.

Are the V3 KWs low and high speed comp. adjustable or just one level of comp. adjustment?
I just browsed through my manual and it does not mention 'two speed' adjustability. It only mentions the effect of adjustments on low speed and higher speed driving.

They're great.....needed them tuned properly by a suspension guy out here and so far feels good. High speed stability and cornering is good but city driving a bit rough. Thinking more designed for track and highway driving.
