Drives great, my old van was on V-maxx and it was harsh . The KW's are really smooth considering how low it is, digging the HLS can't stop going up & down : )

What size offset and tyres do you run. Those rear tyres look very close if the arch comes down !!
Looks stunning. Those wheels are like a timeless classic
