As far as getting some 18" lobster claws for your car I think your out of luck we only got a few custom sets made from Europe. Only 6 sets where imported to the Us the other few sets went to other places.
There are cheeper brands than KW that will get you low.But get what brand you want. But alot of my mates run Vmaxx,Koni,bilstien,Ksport,Eibach,GC or custom- I think V3's are more for cars that see a track alot of the time and not so much cars that are really low.
I run a mixed set up of suspension stuff. HPA,Vmaxx.Eibach. I still have an 1.5" adjustment up front to get lower and 1" in the rear but I would need some tyres that stretch better and I would run the 1" engine mount spacers for more oil pan clearance and remove the front sway bar.
Also I can get the rear lobster claws 10" to tuck since I got different adapters. Eric was running a 25mm adapter. Mine are 15mm with shallow head bolts and I had to machine 3 mm holes in all my back wheels since the bolt heads are counter sunk in the back wheels. and that gives me 5mm inner wheel clearance
If the wheels where 5x100 PCD and the proper offset you can get a 10.5" wheel to sit flush with the gaurd.

I seem to get less roll up front the car seemed to turn sharper. I am still running my stock Fsb. But on the way I was thinking since I did the rear seat delete there is no reason to waste the cold air that is coming out undernith both seats and since they(my seats) have the slots in the bottoms for a fifth seat belt I'm gona plumb the rear floor aircon to the bottom of the seats. I know I will enjoy a nice cool seat. So I got some vacuum hose for the plumbing and I'll have to look around or make some attachments out of fiberglass to slide over the rear floor seat vents. I'm off for some tea.
