Description
KW V3 Leveling targets owners of the 2016–2022 Mercedes-Benz Metris (W447 | 2WD) who want a suspension package selected around the vehicle application rather than a generic spring-and-damper combination.
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.
