How low are KW V3's at factory settings? Pics?

[b spot]

I've got a set of KW V3's sitting in the box waiting to go on, and I was wondering how low they are if I leave them at the settings KW ships them with. What adjustments have most of you guys made, and what differences did they make?

Thanks!

if you purchased KW V3s and want factory settings, why did you buy a coilover with so much adjustability available? you would have been better of with H&R's.

The dampening is pre-set but I dont believe that the same is true for the ride height. My ride height is approximately 25.5 in the rear and 25.75 in the front.
I say approximately because I had the car corner balanced which allows for 50/50 weight distribution in the corners. I have kept the stock dampening settings because I feel that they are set perfectly for daily driving.
Here's a pic.

I meant the KW factory settings... I thought they came at a pre-set height that was lower than stock.

Thanks for posting the pictures/numbers MOFSTEEL!

KW's are not set in anyway from the factory. Call them to get their recommended settings for your car. If not it is very easy for the installer to screw it up and they have to be pulled for damping to be readjusted.
