Bought these KW V2s coilovers for my mom's E60 545i. She had them on for about 600 miles but complained that it was way too stiff for her taste so im posting them up for sale. They will fit any E60 model except the M5

Retail brand new is over $2250


my selling price is $1500 .....they are already off the car so the buyer can pick up locally

willing to ship at buyer's expense








For those who are concerned because this is my first post, i am an active member on e46fanatics.com under the same alias. Im just trying to get rid of these to buy KWs for my 3er.

Hey Ryan,

If someone get's these shocks and springs, you can adjust your height too? or do you use ur current springs (whatever you have)?

these are coilovers so you can adjust your ride height to your preference. they replace your stock shocks and springs

KW V2's are coilovers; which are basically height adjustable springs. V2's also have damper control so you can adjust the stiffness of your shocks. I have the stiffness on my shocks dialed down to OEM sport suspension. Rides like butter.

Ah I get it now. If you get this setup, I would just replace my shocks and springs together. Since they are coilovers.

How can you adjust the height the same on all sides?

Coilover systems always replace both your springs and shocks, but sometimes the shocks are not adjustable (i.e. H&R Coilovers).

You can adjust the height evenly by measuring the collar on each side or you can just eyeball it like I did.
