KW Coilover Kit V1 Volvo V40 / S40 (V) up to chassis # 495473

If you're looking to give your 1995-1999 Volvo V40 or S40 (up to chassis # 495473) a more athletic stance and improved handling, this KW V1 INOX-LINE coilover kit is a solid choice. This kit lets you set your vehicle's ride height within an approved range, giving you that custom look while ensuring the suspension still works properly. The engineers at KW have pre-tuned the dampers and spring rates specifically for your Volvo, aiming for a great balance between sporty driving and everyday comfort.

What sets these coilovers apart is the INOX-LINE stainless steel construction. This means the struts are truly resistant to corrosion, even when you're adjusting the ride height over time. The composite spring perches also help prevent oxidation and ensure smooth adjustments. KW puts each damper through rigorous testing on the Nürburgring Nordschleife and their own 7-post chassis rig to develop a setup that's unique to your car, not a generic one. You'll notice reduced body roll during cornering, leading to more direct and sporty handling.

This kit includes everything you need to get started, with integrated bump stops and dust protection to keep the internal components clean and durable. The ride height is adjusted using a dirt-resistant trapezoidal thread, making it easy to dial in your preferred look even after years of use. KW builds these kits by hand in Germany, and each one gets a serial number and is individually tested before it leaves the factory.
