KW V1, Bilstein B14 or H&R Monotube Coilovers

Hi guys,

Many years ago, I had a Clio 197 with KW V1 coilovers and I was happy with them overall, especially how low it sat at the rear but Id like to try some monotube coilivers. I now have a Clio 200 and im torn on which coilovers to buy as KW advertise the rear ride height to be 20-45mm lower whereas the Bilsteins advertise a 20-40mm drop. Is there a noticeable difference?

Also, I have read numerous times on this forum that H&R monotube coilovers have the possibility to lower the rear more than even KW v1s. However, on their website aswell as CP Performance and Kam Racing, it specifies a 20-40mm drop. Am I missing something?

Im very confused so would appreciate the help. Please note I am not chasing stance or planning to slam the car, I just would like to dial the rear height in perfectly to my liking and the larger the adjustment range the better.

Thanks in advance.
