I would go with the PSS9's, they ride similar to CR suspension except you have the option to adjust height.
They're very street friendly. I would stay away from the Tein flex and the Konis have to be pieced together or purchased through GC as an assembly.
Both PSS9's and Konis will most likely give you the ride you're looking for but depending on the spring that GC specs out you might not get the height you're looking for.

Thanks much!!

I did find the spring rate for the KWs right after I posted before. Go figure. It was at a different vendor that you posted iam7head, but appreciate the link!!


macr88 - I'm thinking the PSS9s are probably what I'm going to go with. Just want to get more info on the KW V2s & see if they might be a better choice. Seems a lot of folks on here really like the V3s, only I don't think I'll need that much adjustability.

I found in the KW V2 install manual that the height from center of the wheel to the fender can be as much as 14.2 in. I did a quick measure of mine stock and it measures 14.25. So those I'm thinking then should keep me at a very mild drop, and plenty of ride adjustment. I think the KWs are what I'll go with.

Seems like lots of folks here really like the V3s, but I just don't need that much adjustment for my use of the car. Good thing is that they are not much more expensive than the PSS9s, and I don't see the complaints about KW's adjustment being either full stiff or full soft.
