    Both PSS9s and KW V3 are very nice... I'd say go with which ever you can get a better deal on

    When I moved up from the H&R Streets I went with the KW V3's. The PSS9's were a consideration but my research had the KW's coming out ahead.

    Why? Not being a smart ass, just curious... I'm tracking my S more and more lately and I would like to upgrade from my STaSIS SS kit soon. Although the PSS9 doesn't have compression + rebound adjustment, I had heard it's internal valving system is superior to the KW V3. Also heard the spring rates were a slight bit higher on the PSS9's, but I haven't been able to confirm that for sure...
