You’re probably already aware but KW recommend C6R9 both front and rear as a baseline. Measured from full hard.

Be wary of specs for MPS suspension. Although they are essentially KW V3s, they may have different valving and the rear springs are certainly different - no helpers on the MPS rear springs.

Front is easy to adjust on the side of the road if you don’t mind lying in the dirt to reach the compression adjusters. Rear needs the car jacked up to reach the rebound adjusters and makes it easier to reach compression adjusters also. With the latter, having a chopstick or pencil with eraser tip makes it easier to manipulate the compression wheel.
Thanks. Yup, knew the KW suggest numbers.

Was hoping for some more real world numbers to smooth out the street drive.
