Got a set of KW shocks and springs and I was the happiest man on Earth. Problem is, snow is coming soon to Colorado and really need to raise my suspension in order to fit snow tires in a smaller size. Anyone knows how to raise these coilovers?

 

Lift the car and remove wheels. The Coilovers should have come with a arced tool and a small Allen wrench. Find the Allen set screw on the plastic ring. Spin the ring up to raise the car and down to lower the car. I'm able to lower/raise the rear with only raising the car and not removing the tires

Thank you! Bought the set used, but I think I have the right tools for the job in my box. So, we are talking about the ring at the base of the coilovers, or the one at the very bottom?

 

It's at the bottom of the spring sits on. On my last two sets of KW's, the ring was purple and made of a durable plastic mQubed Motorsport, Manic Tuning Dealer

 

Perfect! I'll try that way and hopefully do it right... Very grateful for your help...

 

You will need an alignment after you raise the car.

 

Yes, I'll get it done...

 

I dont both realigning it does not change toe very much at all unless you make a huge change

 

are you changing the wheels to a smaller size?
