Our recommended settings won't really have any relevance to your KW V3s...they're valved differently and with different spring rates so I don't think I can give you anything to go on.

That's an odd mix up from KW, but if he got the measurements right then it's okay.

I'm using the exact same springs as you but with OEM top mounts and I'm about 25mm lower than OEM with room to go...

It's probably the way he put the camber plates on the front. You should not use the purple cone piece if you're using the camber plates.

I guess we need to take different sway bars into account. I have the Perrin adjustable on the softest mounting point. Moving the mounting point may have also caused an issue.

I think you'll be plenty happy with the V3s with the 5/6 springs for an all around fun set up. You could add swaybars later if you feel like you need it.

50-200 front and 60-170 rear is exactly what I run on my car. It'll be good. :)
