KW's are some of the best damn coilovers for the money..you will not be disappointed. You spent your money well in a suspension upgrade that will give your ride that extra edge.....personally I'm jealous
The lighter they are the more they cost. These weigh 8 lbs each. About 4-5 lbs lighter then most coilovers out. Bc and jic are about 12-13 each.
Very nice setup..!!
That's a total weight savings of 28 lbs, when directly compared to the stock shock & spring assemblies..

Nice kit, I am jealous. I will probably go for the V3 myself. That is what I have on the IS200 and they are awesome. Never had a complaint for 5 years even on track
Jesus God. $8k on coils, that's baller status. I assume they allow the car to fly as well?
No, they allow the car to land after flying without drama.
You've never bought real racing parts? They're expensive for a reason. I bet these actually do more than just let you lower the car.
I'd still get Penske before I'd buy KW, but that's just personal preference. I'd be happy if Ohlins or Moton made shocks for the F too, but there just isn't a big enough population of serious drivers with IS-Fs to support developing and marketing stuff that works. I often wonder why and how Figs got into Lexus cars - it must be a labor of love, cause it surely isn't going to make him rich.
