Default stasis vs. kw

just trien to figure out my next move, i had a set of the kw v3's on my b6 s4 and loved em and felt a world of difference, clearly the "better" choice are the stasis, but how much better is better, pros, cons, i dont plan on tracking this car more than 2 times a yea so its more about "spirited" daily driving, looks, and ride comfort is important to me aswell, also anyone remember the sprint blue rs4 from sema with the 20's, any info on those rims?

Default STaSIS....

It is a higher quality kit then the KW. Not that KW is bad it is just not as good as the STaSIS Ohlins.

Default Biased, but accurate comparison...

Ohlins dampers are the very best money can buy.

Default 2nd, you need a ride in a ohlin car asap :-)

you will then understand the price difference better. Also i think if you had a car with ohlins you would end up tracking it more then two times a year :-)

IMO, best mod for the RS4, great improvment over DRC, plus adjustability to get the car riding exactly how you want it.

The KW's are excellent, just not at the level of the ohlins...
