KW V2 INOX-LINE Coilover Kit for 2000-2006 BMW M3 E46 Coupe and Convertible - Part Number kws15220023

KW V2 INOX-LINE coilovers are the perfect solution for drivers who want more than just outstanding looks and adjustable ride height. In addition to stainless steel coilover struts, and corrosion-resistant components built for long term durability, KW V2 coilovers utilize TVR-A (Twin Valve Rebound - Adjustable) technology that allow Adjustment of the rebound damping characteristics with 16 clicks so you can fine tune the ride comfort or performance to your satisfaction. As with all KW coilovers our engineers develop vehicle specific damper settings that undergo comprehensive testing on the Nurburgring Nordschleife and in our KW 7-post Driving Dynamic Test Center. With a KW coilover kit the driving experience is more dynamic and direct. With the rebound adjustability you have a more direct influence on the handling or comfort of the car. With 16 precise clicks you can adjust the KW dampers (more firm or more comfortable) without affecting the compression damping fine-tuned by our engineers. The two-stage, patented TVR-A (Twin Valve Rebound - Adjustable) technology enables a small volume of oil flow through an adjustable, conically shaped, low-speed bypass during low damper speeds, while at high damper speeds, the main rebound stage valve opens allowing a larger volume of oil to flow. This provides a big improvement in terms of ride comfort without influencing the high-speed range. There are 16 precise clicks available for individual settings, so you can choose between more comfort or more body control. With KW V2 coilovers you can achieve maximum lowering within an approved lowering range that ensures a proper functioning suspension and adequate travel after your car is lowered. Even after years of use you can easily adjust the ride height thanks to the dirt resistant trapezoid thread and composite adjustment collar. For sporty drivers who want more than just outstanding looks and lowering within the tested Adjustment -angle, the KW V2 "INOX-LINE" coilovers are the perfect suspension featuring TVR-A adjustable rebound damping technology. For over 20 years, KW automotive has been the market leader and driving innovation as a manufacturer of individual suspension solutions for the road and in all types of motorsports. No matter where in the world, gearheads, automobile manufacturers and reputable tuners rely on our KW coilovers "Made in Germany".

• TVR-A (Twin Valve Rebound - Adjustable) technology - allows oil to flow passed an adjustable, conical low-speed bypass during slow damper speeds, while at higher speed, the main rebound stage valve opens for maximum fluid displacement.
• Elastomer Bump stop with integrated dust protection system prevents water and dirt particles reaching the piston rod and seals. The highly resilient bump stops act as dynamic load limiters while maintaining ride quality and durability.
• Adjustable rebound damping allows you to influence the ride characteristics. Paired with vehicle specific spring rates precisely tuned by our engineers, V2 coilovers allow you to choose between more comfort or increased sportiness.
• Composite spring perch made from wear-resistant, friction-optimized polyamide composite encompassing a stainless-steel insert. The polyamide composite prevents oxidation while the stainless-steel insert maximizes strength.
• Inox-Line Stainless Steel - Truly Permanent Corrosion Resistance. Inox-Line coatings will not wear off while adjusting the suspension making KW coilover struts 100 percent corrosion resistant with an unlimited lifespan.
• Seamless Ride Height Adjustment - the corrosion resistance of the Inox-line stainless steel and composite perches means easy ride height adjustability to help you dial in your preferred look
• KW suspensions V2 coilovers are hand built by our expert team and given a uniquely individual serial number at our headquarters in Fichtenberg, Germany.
• Every KW damper is dyno tested to ensure accuracy and preset to our recommended shock settings before being released for delivery.

Upgrade the suspension performance of your BMW M3 E46 with the KW V2 INOX-LINE coilover kit, part number kws15220023. Designed for drivers who want adjustable ride height and greater control over handling, this system combines vehicle-specific spring and damper tuning with 16-click rebound adjustment. The result is a more direct driving experience with the flexibility to prioritize ride comfort, body control, or a balance of both.

KW TVR-A (Twin Valve Rebound - Adjustable) technology uses a two-stage rebound design. At low damper speeds, oil passes through an adjustable conical bypass to improve ride comfort. As damper speeds increase, the main rebound valve opens to provide controlled fluid displacement and consistent performance. Rebound adjustment changes the suspension response without altering the compression damping settings developed by KW engineers. The approved lowering range is engineered to maintain appropriate suspension travel and reliable operation after lowering.

The INOX-LINE stainless steel construction and corrosion-resistant components support long-term durability while helping preserve smooth ride-height adjustment. A dirt-resistant trapezoid thread, composite spring perches, elastomer bump stops, and integrated dust protection help protect critical suspension components from contamination and wear. Each KW damper is dyno tested and preset to recommended settings before shipment, while every kit is hand built in Germany and developed through extensive vehicle testing, including work at the Nürburgring Nordschleife and KW's 7-post Driving Dynamic Test Center.

This KW V2 coilover kit fits the 2000-2006 BMW M3 E46 Coupe and Convertible, including 2001, 2002, 2003, 2004, 2005, and 2006 models. Verify vehicle configuration and application details before installation.
