I have KW Varient 1 coilovers. I like them a lot. Very smooth and tight.

Using V1 since a year, handling is great, little stiff when road gets just a bit bumpy, though .

Default I've had them since summer and love them!

... with a 2 finger gap all around.

Plus with my 18"s on I have no gap anymore (I came from stock suspension, not even sport!)

PES did a great job on my installation and got the right height on the first try!

Default I personally thing its way better than stock ...

handles corners much better and (with 18"s) you feel more in touch with the road. I guess at times its a little bumpy w/ the suspension, but its not that bad (not much worse than in my father's stock suspensioned s4.. if not the same on the bumps)

Look at my picture poster for a picture of my car stock vs lowered. Sorry the picture isn't that great. When I get around to it I'll take a better one.
