Anyone install coilovers onto their F25/F26?

Been searching around and realized that the threads that have the most discussion on lowered F25's are on springs. Wondering if there's anyone out there that have installed coilovers? I'm doing some research before I make the leap on my 2015 F25 X3 28D.

So far it sounds like there are three options. KW V2, BC Racing, Megan Racing.

Can anyone chime in on the following categories if you made the change to coilovers?

It would be great if everyone can stick to this format instead of any discussion that leads outside of the subject to avoid

Engine:
Brand/model of coilovers:
Total height after lowering:
Rubbing anywhere?:
Ride quality compared to OEM:
Wheel and tire size:
Custom spring rates or dampening?:
Used/Brand new? Price:
Kilometers (or miles) since installation:

Thank you ahead of time and hopefully this thread becomes a useful resource for all board members!

KW V3s also exist for this car, I'm going to install them on my non-DHP/sport suspension delete X3 since they are fully adjustable.

I did see those! Not sure about quality of Megan though. Pretty bad rep it seems although coming from the Audi/VAG scene I've seen quite a bit...
