Just about to start Kingmaker as a player. I was wondering what the max usable and ending level was in the AP? Thinking of doing a PRC. Thanks.

Not sure what you are asking but PathFinder APS go to level 16 or so, Kingmaker you are supposed to end at 17th.

Do you happen to have a break down of "suggested" level for each of the books/individual adventures. I am particularly interested in when each level might occur within the AP. For instance with a slow progression I would think most of the party would be level 2 by the end of their second hex exploration.

At Medium progression of 4 PCs, is is suggested that the players will be at level 17 by the end of the last module.
For the questions you are asking, I would ask the DM. That way he can give you that information if he feels you should have it.
But I will say you will not be at level 2 by your second hex.

@Nebten I AM the DM, and we are actually starting it this Thursday if the plan goes well. I think I like the idea of the second hex causing level 2, and maybe level 3 after 5-8 more hex. The are supposed to be ~4 when the first module is done.
Yes we will be leveling as a group. We have had some issues with level differences in our last series, so I am doing this to fix it.

Sorry. I saw the D's by the guy who did the OP and you. For some reason I thought you were the same person.
Here is the breakdown for suggested levels for each module: http://paizo.com/pathfinder/adventurePath/kingmaker/v5748btpy8dml

Thanks for the answers. Looks like I can do what I was thinking.

Out of curiosity, which PrC are you thinking of taking?
If you are starting your PrC as early as you can (usually 6th or so), then you should be able to expect having the final end cap abilities of the class by the end game.
There's a big caveat though. If your character build really doesn't kick in until 10th+ level, then you'll end up playing through most of the game "waiting for your character concept to kick in", which is not really that fun.
Kingmaker is especially good for giving a lot of hooks for further adventuring after the APs are done though, so it can be a great kickstarter to high level gameplay if the DM is up to making his own stuff.
I'd even go so far as to say that it's a greater primer for an Epic game, you end up with a Kingdom, after all.
