Coilovers?
I've been looking around for some coilovers that work for both the street and a little bit of track, what experiences do you guys have with any good brands? I have a 2013 coupe.

KW V3. Ride better than stock and handles much better than stock.

I see the KW V3's are being recommended. Any reason not to get the V4's?

C63 507
I’ve also been looking into this. My suspension (c63 507 wagon) is past it’s best and I’d like to explore refresh / upgrade options. I’d like something akin to a BMW Alpina type ride quality. Not slammed. Not track. Just high quality damping and set up for the road

KW v3’s have been mentioned before

intrax also also been raised

any idea how to preserve a road bias with compliance??

V3's have dampening / height controls. You can dial them in any way you wish.

@ autotalent

thanks for the post! What are your views on KW v3 for the purposes of a ROAD only C63? I don’t want a stiff setup and I’m not interested in lowering the car. Looking for a better quality damper and spring combo that is a more compliant setup than OEM

do you think that is a realistic prospect?

thanks

No problem! The V3 really do shine on the track but I would say 75% off my customers don't actually track their car. I think it would be suitable for you as you have 16 different compression / rebound dampening settings. You can definitely adjust to your liking with all the different options. Handles and feels way better than OEM.
