Thats nice to hear. As i said above, mine have yet to be fitted but its nice to hear from somebody who has them on. Are you on the lowest setting? No problems as yet with speed humps/dips in road at speed etc.. How stiff is the ride compared to STD shocks? Please tell me bodyroll is reduced as that is my main gripe with the STD shocks..

Many Thanks

only had car on the road for a few weeks but as for body roll it reduce a quite bit but unless you fit bigger anti roll bars dampers alone will not stop body roll .
As for speed bumps i am glad to say i do not have any where i drive and now the car is for track use only i hope i done see any so cant answer that one sorry

CTR42, which KW suspension on yours? is it V3 or a new model from KW?

They have been made as a one off at the moment for my race car but all the feed back i will send back will be use to put these units into production for road cars and still be ride adj with rebound and bump adj and with fast road damping
