KW V2 spring options
Is it possible to fit different springs? Maybe Swift springs. Personally I find the KW V2 springs too stiff for my liking would like to swap in a softer spring if possible any ideas?

They're pretty soft already...but yes, you can buy a slightly softer spring if you want.
I think they are supplied with 9KG/mm springs. You could theoretically go down to 7 or 8KG. Maybe you can go a little softer....but...then you're approaching the rate of a stock spring.
They should be 60mm ID and ~140mm length. You may want to go with a longer spring, though, if you go softer. Maybe 150mm or so, depending on how soft.
If the car is lowered too much (anything more than like 0.75" is a bit much for your setup), then that's why they feel so stiff. You're riding around on the bumpstop.
