KW V3 Coilovers

Just picked up the Box from getting the new KW V3 coilovers installed. It's only a couple miles from the shop back to the office and only one 90 degree turn (I had to hang back to let the car in front of me get far enough ahead so I could hit the curve running). Feels a little stiffer than with the Eibachs but completely planted through said 90 degree curve at about 50 mph. Hopefully this weekend I'll get up Rte 8 in VA, my favorite semi-local bit of sick twistery and see how it really handles...if anyone is looking for a cheap set of Eibachs (these came off an '04, don't know how year specific they are) drop me a line.

How many miles are on the springs?

How do they compare to the H & R(Gemballa) springs?
