What setting is everyone running their V3's on? even better someone running R888's and V3's.

thanks

MikeyLYR27 is running V3s with R888s mate.

Lol! I'm running at the front: 10 on top, 7 on the bottom.

Rear I'm running 10 on top and 4 on the bottom. Really nice and smooth, soaks up bumps and still incredibly flat through corners! I ran this stetup at Bedford and was great, was a bit cold and damp later so thought softer might be better, but I'm doing croft in 2 weeks so im gonna have a fiddle, gonna try 7/4 all round and 8/5 and see how I get on. Pics in my thread of it in action, doesn't feel like it rolls.

 

[Richy200]

Haha cheers for that noddie

I found you said use 7/4 on my project thread lol. It was on 9/4 all round and use to have a small bit of under steer before it griped (on 3/4mm contis) now on 7/4 all round and it grips straight away and hard! Can't wait to try with R888's

 

[MikeLYR27]

I was running that, but found on bumpier stuff it was too much, its much more settled now and still really tight! But its all about experimenting with these

I'm using 11 top, 6 bottom for day to day driving. Soaks up the bumps nicely but not quite as grippy as standard settings (on a smooth road).

Yet to try them harder to see how awesome they can be!

 

[MikeLYR27]

Try running the rear a bit stiffer Ben, should sort it out a bit! My road setting arnt far off yours and it is very good. 7/4 is great on smoother roads when your going for it. Gonna experiment a bit on my next track day.

Great thread.

And what ride-height settings are people using?

 

[Richy200]

Ride height is low lol. rears all the way down.

7/4 all round and the thing turns in so nice and composed surprisingly different to 9/4. just feels like it will hold the line better and that's on the conti's

 

[JochimG]

Stock settings and low down in the rear.

Maybe someone will also share the Clubsport settings

 

[MikeLYR27]

^^^they will basically be the same mate.

After much trial for good b road performance..
9/6 front 9/5 rear.

Smooth track.
7/5 front 7/4 rear.

9/6 front 9/5 rear.

So this would be grippier/sportier than stock? Just got a set of KWv3s and I'm trying to figure out the best 'fast road' settings and ride height.

 

[BenW]

I found KW's recommended settings spot on for fast road, grip really well. I'm only running mine softer as 95% of my driving is commuting on bumpy roads!

What was KW's recommended setting BenW?

 

[Richy200]

7/4 is there settings Im running 9/4 and its even better!! Just turns in perfectly even on the contis. on the 888's its like playing a game!!

 

[dangerdaz]

Interesting as out of the box the clubsports are 9/5 all round.

The manual for my V3s says rebound 9 clicks and bump 0.75 turns
