KW HAS installed!

Finally got around to installing the KW HAS kit on my car and I am so happy I went with this option. The drive is amazing in all 3 modes and the drop is just perfect.

I am sitting on 20's at the moment and thinking of either staying with that size and maybe getting 21's. What do you guys advise?

Love it! Looks sexy as F.

I ran DINAN on both 21 and 20. I found the ride was slightly harder on 21 and softer on 20. The look of the 21s though was amazing.

On 21"s with KW HAS and love both the look and the ride. 21" is a game-changer IMO.

Your car looks amazing btw.

Looks awesome!! My install of KW HAS and Dinan Sway bars goes down tomorrow morning. Can hardly still and don't know how I'll be able to sleep tonight. I'm on stock 20's and will likely stay there. Is your KW HAS sitting at it's lowest setting but still within recommended parameters? I'd like to eliminate as much wheel gap as possible but stay within specs.

I still have a little more drop. I am waiting for the springs to settle and then I will decide if I will drop it any further. Also deciding on 20's or 21's for the ride and then will see.

I have hardly any wheel gap. It is sitting just on the tyres.

Sounds good. Thanks for the info. My install has been going all day today and should be finished up tomorrow morning. So far, so good they say!
