Is KW all it's cracked up to be?

Hi guys
Shortly I'll be buying a new suspension set up for my Eddie (2008 DSG)

Would like bilstein B12 but have thought I'd like to be able to adjust the height  :popcornsoda: although I'm not into all this "slam it and space it out look"

KW automotive always gets good reviews but do they justify the cost? I know bilstein are really really good hence why I'd like the B12 kit but it's just the fixed height that makes me not 100%
I'd like the kw V2 but they seem to cost over 1k (in dollars that is as I can't find a uk price on there site)

If there worth the £££ then I'll go for the KW V2 coilovers but id like some views on weather the extra £££ would be worth the jump from the B12's

Other suspension mods will include
Lightweight brakes
Alloy hubs and arms
WALK
Polly bush front ARB
Eibach or autotech rear ARB

All I'm looking for really is great handling


Thanks again
Jack

It's a minefield  :fighting2: I'm leaning towards KW at the moment tho  :drinking:

from what i have read they are both very good kits and i think i have heard just as many people recommend kw as bilstein. So in this case i think what its going to come down to is would you pay the extra ££ for the ability to adjust?
