KW Suspension Coilovers Chevrolet

KW Coilovers for Chevrolet

Coilovers.com is the authorized USA dealer for KW Suspension coilovers across the Chevrolet lineup. We carry KW fitments for Corvette (C5, C6, C7, and C8 generations), Camaro (5th-gen and 6th-gen including SS and ZL1), Cobalt SS, and select other Chevrolet platforms. KW brings German engineering and TÜV-certified construction to American performance platforms where the chassis behavior rewards aftermarket damping engineered to OEM-grade tolerances.

Call us at 1-800-460-9106 to talk through your build. Free shipping on most KW Chevrolet coilover kits sold within the United States and Canada.

Note on naming: V1, V2, and V3 are how customers commonly shop these kits. KW also references them as the KW V1 (Variant 1), KW V2 (Variant 2), and KW V3 (Variant 3) series — same product, same Series tier.

Why Chevrolet Drivers Choose KW

Chevrolet performance platforms — particularly Corvette and Camaro — have historically been served by domestic aftermarket suspension brands. KW occupies a distinct position in this market: a German manufacturer with OEM-supplier credentials at the highest tier of European performance engineering, bringing that same engineering discipline to American chassis. The result is a coilover lineup engineered with manufacturing tolerances and damper precision that few domestic alternatives match at any price point.

The customers who buy KW for Chevrolet from us share a common profile. They drive Corvettes — particularly C6 Z06, C7 Z06, C7 ZR1, and C8 Z06 — or Camaro SS and ZL1 platforms where the stock suspension is already capable and they want German engineering to take it further. They want TÜV certification. They want a clear product ladder from V1 through V3 and KW Clubsport coilovers. KW delivers all three.

For comprehensive coverage of KW engineering, the full Variant lineup, TÜV certification, and warranty details, see the KW Suspension parent collection.

KW Chevrolet Coverage by Chassis

KW for Chevrolet Corvette

Corvette coverage spans four generations:

C5 Corvette (1997-2004) — Base, Z06, and ZR-1 variants. Multiple Variant options available for vintage Corvette build applications.

C6 Corvette (2005-2013) — Base, Grand Sport, Z06, and ZR1 variants. Magnetic Selective Ride Control (Magnetic Ride) was optional on most C6 platforms — Magnetic Ride-equipped C6s require platform-specific KW configuration.

C7 Corvette (2014-2019) — Stingray, Grand Sport, Z06, and ZR1 variants. Magnetic Ride was standard or optional depending on configuration. Variant 3 and Clubsport options available for track-focused C7 builds.

C8 Corvette (2020+) — Mid-engine architecture with dedicated KW fitments. Stingray, Z06, E-Ray, and ZR1 applications progressively being added. The C8 platform represents the newest engineering work in the KW Corvette catalog.

KW for Chevrolet Camaro

Camaro coverage spans the 5th-gen (2010-2015) and 6th-gen (2016-2024) chassis. 5th-gen Camaro SS, ZL1, and Z/28 variants. 6th-gen Camaro SS and ZL1 variants. Magnetic Ride-equipped Camaros require platform-specific KW configuration.

KW for Other Chevrolet Platforms

Cobalt SS (turbocharged) for vintage build applications. Select other Chevrolet performance platforms where KW applications are offered. Most non-Corvette/non-Camaro Chevrolets are not direct-fit KW applications — call us at 1-800-460-9106 for current availability.

Choosing the Right KW Variant for Your Chevrolet

Most Chevrolet builds fall into one of three use-case categories.

Street-driven Corvette Stingray, Camaro SS, or daily-driver Chevy: Variant 1 is the right pick. Fixed factory-engineered damping with no adjustment dials, ride-height adjustability, and OEM-grade KW construction.

Spirited driving Corvette Grand Sport, Z06, Camaro ZL1: Variant 2 adds 12-click rebound adjustment. Variant 3 adds independent rebound and compression. Most Z06 and ZL1 owners running canyon and track-day duty land on V3.

Track-focused Corvette Z06, ZR1, or Camaro Z/28: Variant 3 is the volume-seller track kit. Clubsport is the upgrade for serious motorsport use with higher spring rates and rod-end top mounts.

KW Street Comfort coilovers are KW's comfort-focused tier for daily-driven applications where ride quality is the priority. The Street Comfort series sits between V1 and V2 in damping characteristics with calibration tuned for road compliance. Available on supported chassis — call us at 1-800-460-9106 for Street Comfort fitment and pricing.

Chevrolet Magnetic Ride Considerations

GM's Magnetic Selective Ride Control (also called Magnetic Ride) is standard or optional on most C6 Corvette, C7 Corvette, C8 Corvette, and 5th-gen and 6th-gen Camaro platforms. KW handles Magnetic Ride-equipped Chevrolets through either cancellation modules that delete the factory electronic damping or DDC integration that retains the factory adaptive behavior on a lowered threaded coilover. Each fitment page notes the Magnetic Ride approach for that specific chassis. Call us before ordering if your Chevrolet has Magnetic Ride.

Frequently Asked Questions

Will KW fit my Corvette?

KW covers C5, C6, C7, and C8 Corvette generations. Use the make-and-model filter on the product grid below to confirm fitment for your specific year and chassis. If your year is not listed but the chassis generation is covered, call us at 1-800-460-9106.

Do KW coilovers work with Magnetic Ride?

Some KW Corvette and Camaro fitments work with Magnetic Ride through DDC integration. Others require cancellation modules. Each fitment page notes the requirements. Call us before ordering if your Chevrolet has Magnetic Ride.

What's the best KW kit for a C7 Z06?

The Variant 3 is the most-installed C7 Z06 kit in our catalog. The independent rebound and compression adjustment lets the driver tune the Z06 chassis for street, canyon, and track use. For dedicated track-focused C7 Z06 builds, Clubsport is the upgrade.

Are KW coilovers good for the C8 Corvette?

Yes. The C8 mid-engine platform has dedicated KW fitments engineered specifically for the chassis architecture. C8 Stingray, Z06, and progressive E-Ray and ZR1 applications are available or being added.

Can I run KW on a Camaro ZL1?

Yes. Both 5th-gen and 6th-gen Camaro ZL1 variants have dedicated KW fitments. Magnetic Ride-equipped ZL1s require platform-specific configuration.

Do I need an alignment after installing KW on my Chevrolet?

Yes. After installing any coilover kit, a four-wheel alignment is essential. Plan the alignment as part of the install job.
