H&R vs KW H.A.S
I’m looking to lower my 2014 E63 and seems like the options above are the most common one.
H&R go around 230ish vs KW HAS retails around 950. Almost 4 times the price.
anyone here running KW that might have upgraded from H&R? Is the price difference really worth it?
i am aware that the KW are adjustable upfront, but is it worth it?
thanks in advance

I never got the H&R springs, but, as the above members stated, adjustability is where it's at. I raised the front of my car a year after initial install. Springs do settle and taste does change, It's good to have the option to change ride height w/o having to disassemble your suspension.

i have H&R on my wagon and love it - had had experience with both - back in the day had K&W adjustable and H&R Adjustable Street Perfo and never touched them once after installed - wagon has 1 finger gap in front - not sure how much lower you would want to go - i like the ride too

2014 E550, 2015 E63S, 2017 G63 - RIP
Had both on 2015 E63.
Height is approximately the same but definitely night and day difference in ride quality.
H&R is a bit harsh and bumpy, KW is a lot smoother.
Highly recommend KW HAS.

Thank you fellas! I really appreciate the feedback.
my main concern with this was not so much the adjustability but more of the comforts. I didn’t wanna lower the car and lose the comfort ride, I know I’m already sacrificing a bit going to 20s with low pros and wanted to make sure I can keep it as smooth as possible

Oh and I pulled the trigger on KW HAS. Should have them next week! I’ll update the thread once I install them but could be a while as my wheels are 3 or 4 weeks away.
thanks again
thanks again
