A couple of reasons.

1. The KW Variant 3's are pretty damned good coil-overs and have separate bump and rebound adjustment.... No need to reinvent the wheel when a good product exists (for those hell-bent on coil-overs). I do sell KW, most don't care to look that far and they cost a good bit more than many want (though they are much less than many top-flight setups for other cars).

2. "Coil-overs" don't in and of themselves make a good handling car, and I feel my springs and Koni's work every bit as well (at times better) and having that height adjustment just isn't a big deal as my springs are basically the rates and ride heights I ran on a set of coil-overs with Koni's. So unless you have to have that height adjustment I just don't think they are necessary.
