You must be smoking something. No way the Pss9s are as good or better than the KWv3.
The KWs have amazing ability to absorb and stabilize over bumps during corners. The adjustablity of the Pss9s is a crapshoot. However with the KWv3s its a perfect adjustability with the ability to truly fine tune.

I just thought that was a funny way of putting it the design flaw into perspective...

BIlstein has great customer service. Maybe look into PSS9s with stiffer springs from the get go. If they go, send them back to Bilstein for a $60/shock rebuild to your specs.

After talking with Koni, I'll take their twin-tube over any mon-tube any day.

i talked about coilovers - didn't you?
and "i didn't like them" means that they didn't work good.
their shocks are good - but i think they're marketng is Coca-Cola strong and their fame is overrated.
there plenty other good ones.
but this is whole another discussion.........

i also found that the allen screw strips easily, and before doing so i just didnt tighten it very much. ive adjusted them many times over the life of the system and without tightening this screw all the way, that collar has never moved on me. i love my V3s and will be revalving them with some hypercos in the near future
