KW Coilover Kit V3 Volvo S40/V50 (M) 2WD

KW automotive is known for developing high-performance suspension systems, often drawing from motorsports technology. This KW V3 Coilover suspension kit for your 2004-2011 Volvo S40 or V50 (2WD) brings that performance focus to the street, offering a significant boost in safety reserves and driving dynamics. It's built to reduce pitching and rolling during load changes like cornering, braking, or evasive maneuvers, which can also help shorten braking distances. You'll notice improved support and feedback from the road, making everyday driving feel more secure and controlled.

What sets the V3 apart is its ability to customize the damper setup. You can independently adjust both the compression and rebound damping. This means you can fine-tune the suspension to your personal driving preferences or account for changes in your vehicle, like added weight, different tire characteristics, or increased body rigidity. For instance, you can increase compression damping to get more grip from your tires and improve cornering without affecting the rebound damping, which is carefully matched to the spring rate. This patented system allows for true performance optimization, influencing steering behavior, directional stability, and overall grip for confident handling, even at the limit.

The V3 kit features KW's patented TVR-A (rebound) and TVC-A (compression) valve technology. The rebound adjustment uses a conical bypass for low-speed control and a main valve for higher speeds. The compression valve allows for fine-tuning of low-speed damping, with a blow-off feature for sudden high-speed piston movements. These coilovers are built with Inox-Line stainless steel struts for permanent corrosion resistance, composite spring perches that prevent oxidation, and elastomer bump stops with integrated dust protection. Each kit is hand-built in Germany and individually dyno-tested before shipping to ensure accuracy and preset shock settings.
