Description
On the 2017+ BMW 5 Series (G30 | Non-EDC), KW V3 Leveling is best approached as a chassis-tuning upgrade first and a ride-height change second.
KW V3 Leveling uses the V3 concept to address vehicles where the goal is controlled stance correction and chassis support rather than aggressive lowering alone. Independent damping adjustment allows the owner to refine the setup around load, tire and road conditions. The application-specific calibration is intended to give the chassis a more deliberate response than a one-size-fits-all suspension combination.
Why Choose the KW V3 Leveling for This Application?
Choose V3 Leveling when correcting stance and controlling the vehicle under load are equally important. It offers more setup authority than a simple leveling spring or spacer approach.
Key Features
- Application-specific height adjustment for leveling
- Independent rebound and compression tuning

Enthusiast Setup Perspective
This setup makes the most sense when the suspension is being treated as part of a complete package. Final ride height, alignment, tire choice and available bump travel should be considered together rather than setting the car as low as possible.
Important KW Fitment Notes
- KW Note 1: Height adjustable on the front and rear axles (threaded strut housings)
- KW Note 37: For cars which have electronic dampers, make sure they are shut down. Specific electronical damper shut-downs are available from KW. Please check our accessories list
- KW Note 67: Valving is adjusted by adjustment knobs, rebound is only adjustable if the top of the piston rod is accessible. This will depend on the design of the vehicle.
Fitment note: Specifications above are tied to the exact KW part number shown and the application data in the supplied KW jobber sheet. Confirm the vehicle's drivetrain, factory electronic suspension, axle weight and any listed hardware requirements before ordering.
