Audi RS6 coilover suspension: Upgrade your RS6 C8 with KW products
The Audi RS6 Avant (C8) is bursting with performance. Therefore, it is time to emphasize its sporty-aggressive appearance with KW coilovers. We have been offering height-adjustable spring kits for the vehicle for some time now. This allows you to convert your optional RS sports suspension plus with Dynamic Ride Control (DRC) into a coilover suspension in no time at all. Individual, stepless lowering included. If you also want to increase the driving dynamics, opt for the KW V4 coilover suspension with three-way adjustable damper setup.
Problems with the standard version
The Audi RS6 Avant (C8) stands for impressive performance. However, the standard suspension reaches its limits when it comes to lowering and individualizing the damping. If you want precise feedback from the road and want to adjust the handling exactly to your personal preferences, opt for KW. Ambitious drivers in particular, who regularly enjoy winding country roads or track days, want more control, stability and more direct handling.
Function & quality from KW
Say goodbye to the limitations of the standard suspension. The KW V4 is suitable for drivers who want to set up their vehicle even more specifically for sporty performance. You decide how your car reacts on the road. With 16 clicks in the low-speed rebound and 13 clicks in the low-speed and high-speed compression damping, it offers you maximum individualization. In addition, you can lower your RS6 as much as you like thanks to the long-lasting trapezoidal thread.

The most important questions about the Audi RS6 Avant (C8) with KW products
Height-adjustable springs as an affordable option to a coilover suspension?
It depends. You can lower your Audi RS6 with both KW height-adjustable springs and the KW V4 coilover suspension. When height-adjustable coilover springs, the standard dampers are retained. Our KW coilover springs ensure a sporty look for the RS6 Avant (C8) thanks to stepless lowering. If you do not require functions such as individualization of the damper setup or increased driving dynamics, our height-adjustable springs are the right choice.
How suitable for everyday use is the RS6 Avant after the installation of KW products?
Both the KW V4 and our lowering springs for the Audi A6 C8 offer sporty performance on your everyday routes. Since the lowering is infinitely adjustable, you decide how the Audi RS6 ground clearance is designed. With our KW coilover springs, a lowering of 5 to 30 mm is possible on both axles. With the KW V4 coilover suspension you get a lowering range of 10 to 35 mm on the front axle and 10 to 40 mm on the rear axle.
Does the installation of the products affect the optional RS Sport suspension plus or Dynamic Ride Control?

This allows you to achieve a level of driving dynamics and performance that goes beyond the possibilities of the standard suspension. You design your suspension according to your personal requirements. If you want to retain the functions of your original suspension, KW height-adjustable springs are the perfect solution.
