Default Do ISF KW coilovers fit all IS models?

Sorry if this has been asked, I tried searching. I'm looking to sell my KW V3 setup and obviously the is250/350 has a bigger market than the F. The part number for the 250/350 ends with 002 and the F is 003 so the pn is different, but they are the same chassis and basic setup and everything, will they fit on the lower models?

Second question before I even try selling them, these have been on my car about 30k miles, are they even worth trying to sell? The mileage isn't high and KW is a reputable brand but suspension parts are one of those wear and tear items. Is there a ballpark fair value for these? Thanks!

That was the goal, but I didn't know about the marketplace rules, so I have to wait a month until I can throw these up, which is fine. If these fit the 2/350 I can probably throw them up on craigslist locally and get rid of them pretty quickly though, which is why I asked.

Also I'm not really sure whats fair to ask, the F was the first car of mine I really modded so I'm not sure how much value is left in this stuff. Wheels and aesthetic stuff is easier to gauge I guess.

They will mechanically fit, but they won't be valved for the lighter cars. 250/350 owners would complain the ride is too stiff.

Oh ok, gotcha. Are the spring rates different too? I remember looking at Audi setups way back and the coils were interchangeable between the A/S4 for example so I figured it might be similar.

The 350 and 250 are significantly lighter, so the spring rates should be lighter as well. It would all depend on what the next owner is expecting.
