Based on my experience running KW V1's on other vehicles in the past I had no doubt the ride was going to improve over the standard M-sport suspension on this X1. The factory ride is stiff and the damping and rebound are too quick and harsh. The KW's smooth all of that out, I"m surprised because I thought most of the "rough" riding on the factory set up was all due to the run flats but it's not.
The way I always describe switching to a KW setup is that it's firm but soft.
Currently this is the third vehicle in my fleet that runs KW's. I have V1's on my S40 club car and V3's on my wife's C70.

Wow, that is interesting as I was blaming 100% on the rft , thank you. I have an xdrive 2.0d , I definitely do not want to lower the ride height, in fact I would be happy if it were 1/2” higher. Can you recommend suitable KW set-up?
Thanks again
