Default KW Variant 1 opinions

I was wondering if anyone had these Coilovers? If so please chime in on this and let me know how they feel, the quality, how low you can actually go with these and any other qualities good or bad that you’d like to mention. I’m personally looking for something to daily drive on but at the same have the ability to lower my Z a considerable amount. Not really talking about lowering to the point of hard rubbing or anything but something that would sit well with a wide, low offset wheel. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!

any coilover would work with a wide, low offset wheel as long as the camber is adjusted correctly.

Adjustment range is the same as all the KW Variant Coilovers: -.8 inch to -1.5 inches from stock, which gives the car a very nice stance (noticeable) without looking cartoonish. They are extremely comfortable and designed as a street unit

i run the eibach badged ones ( same as kw v.1 ). very good build quality and after 18k miles they do not feel any different. i would highly recommend this setup.
