Looking for Airbag/Coils advice

Hello everyone,

I've been trying to do a lot of research lately to come up with as much as I could before posting this, I know it has been mentioned a few times but a lot of the posts I come across are from 2012 and maybe a little after, saw some of the older posts brought back but not with much certainty. was hoping that now at least some years later there are more options.

My big dilemma revolves around my 2012 G37xS Coupe, I have read as much as I could concerning Air Bags and Coilovers for these cars and it still seems like there are almost no options.

One of my main questions is if anyone knows any other brand AirBags that fit the AWD coupe besides KSport and Airrex? I originally wanted to go with AirBags but I heard Ksport isn't the best and Airrex would run me almost $8k Installed if not a little more, not that I except something extremely cheap and I'm aware you get what you pay for but to me a over $8k seems a little steep, that was one of the higher end packages with the LCD screen control and monitor but even the more basic package was around $6.5K installed if I remember correctly, I just wanted to make sure I wasn't missing something or found a reputable brand that has a little bit of a cheaper bag system.

Adding to the bags, I was also wondering if anyone has hands on experience with them in the colder states. I live in CT and after doing some reading I found that it is possible for the lines to freeze, malfunction in the extreme cold, burst, ect. and it was one of the things worrying me about bothering with bags in the first place because this is my daily and if they are that sensitive to the cold as we get some harsh winters maybe it isn't the best option, although I have seen plenty of bagged cars around here.


After reading all the goods and bads about Bags, the limited options for the AWD coupe and what seems to be the only price point for my car it has me looking more into coilovers as well. Although I do originally want bags I wouldn't mind getting a really quality set of Coilovers. To me it seems like even Coilovers are very limited for my car, again correct me if I am wrong but upon looking around these forums and google it seems to be: KSport, Tein, Fortune 500, BC are the only ones that might fit my car.

I pretty much tried to rule out KSport and BC to be honest because there are a handful of people that said they aren't the best, then again people have said the other 2 aren't good either, I know that everyone will have their own opinion and some will love one of them while another person hates it but its making it very difficult to shop between these limited options when someone has something to say about all of them.


The main question is, what do you guys think I should do or would be the best choice? Are there any brands or options I'm missing? Any advice would be greatly appreciated

Thanks
Dan
