Anyone run kW v3 with the spring set higher than the max in the install manual? I'm dragging everywhere drags too much. Lots of thread left but I'm almost at max of what the install manual says,. Like 8.5 front and 8.3 rear

 

What do you mean by "dragging?"

Are you scraping the bottom of the car on the ground, or are the tires rubbing the inside of the fender?

 

On gravel it's scraping the ground, the road has a high center I bet I'm an inch lower than my jcw

 

I just put KW V3s on my 2003 MCS and remember adjusting the spring pretty high, a bit higher than I thought it should go. I don't remember the measurements right now, but I think I was able to raise the car to an inch lower than stock height.

Were are you measuring "Like 8.5 front and 8.3 rear" from?

 

the install directions measure from a point on the bottom of the shocks to the bottom of the spring that's what I was doing.

I have to drive on the edge of the road or I drag parts all over lol, my r53 JCW (with red springs) is almost as bad
