He doesn't. You lose EDC with coilovers.

***Sorry, didn't notice this was the sleeve over kit. So he should still have EDC.

I will chime in on the ride quality with KW HAS kit. The ride is really good and definitely not bouncy like when you spring lower a car. You still have all modes to choose from via EDC.

+1. I did H&R springs. I didn't lose the EDC functionality but my car is bouncy when going over uneven parts of the road at high speeds. I keep hearing from everyone that's done the KW HAS that the ride quality is great. So, my 2 cents, anyone thinking of a drop go this route if you're looking to keep EDC. I am thinking of swapping the H&Rs for these myself.

Super looks, enjoy.

I did the same as yourself.
I had the H&R springs first, then installed the KW HAS kit.
Huge difference in ride quality. So much soother and more responsive.
Plus, you can adjust to your preferd height and retain the suspension settings.
Wish Dinan would release their sleeve over kit for the M6. They only offer it for the F10 M5 at this time.
