see it that way, I am sure you will be perfectly happy with the PSS9 or the KW var II or var III.
I even doubt you'll notice a difference without extensive track use.

It boils down to the best offer on any of the 3 really. You won't go wrong no matter which you choose. (neither would you with the H&R coilovers)

Get a few prices and get your head humming.

Psh, I'd just get a mallet and compress the springs with bungee cords.

If you want to wait that long why don't you wait for the Bose Suspension System, it's going to be better than anything currently available and should be out in the next couple years.

The lighter colored Lexus is the one with the Bose Suspension System, obviously.

Im geared toward the Koni FSD Eibach Prokit my self. Seeing Bilsteins site they dont have a complete kit, If you get the Pss9 you need a hardware kit and then you need this and that. They do have sport struts to be used with with sport springs but which ones. Thats my 2 cents
