I'm being snarky because there are only four coil-over options for AWD to my knowledge. Just how difficult can it be? Now, us RWD owners have something like 60 options; I never counted the entries in the sedan coil-over redux thread.

I was considering the fortune auto coilovers for my X sedan. There are lots of reviews available and I have drove an X Sedan with them. Comfortable ride, and still delivers great handling. Adjustable to your preference.

I have Fortune Auto 500 for the last year (G37xS Coupe). I was debating between Stance and FA500, but ultimately went with FA. So far, I like them and there are no noises, clunks, etc.

A few people have commented on how my car rides very comfortably since most thought C/O would make the ride harsher. I hope this helps.

I never experienced K-sport so I can't comment. However, I don't regret the FA500 that I bought. Check with Luke at THMotorsports. Maybe he can give you a good price.

For what it's worth, I wanted to get Ohlins, Moton, Bilstein, etc. I was really disappointed to find out none made C/O for the GxS coupe. It sucks that the best C/O the GxS coupe can get are all the budget C/O's. With that said, FA is not bad for the cost and more importantly, no clunks, rattles, etc.

Well, find someone locally who has them. See if they will let you drive their cars or ride with them a few more times. No need to rush into it. I researched about it for a year since the brands I wanted did not make it for our car and I did not know much about the budget C/O's. I pm'd many on this forum and asked questions with those who had them.
