Get what you want bro your money. Out of the two I'd choose Megan hands down. If that's what you wanna rock, rock it. Build it for you.

$70k car + cheap coilovers sounds like something bad waiting to happen.

+1 for megans, if you feel that you'd rather spend on a set of Tanabe or Tein, go for it.

tein is by no means a "high-end" suspension

high end? of course not.
but "brand" name? yes.
nobody on this forum runs a "high end" suspension. a la ohlins, penske, moton, etc... because people want to be low, and comfortable. :shrug:
handling is generally somewhat secondary.

to me this is llike wheels. everything is the similar and regardless of who makes them they'll probably work. the difference comes down to design, repuatation, and quality.
companies like tein and jic design their products from the ground up. they manufacture their own parts, do their own r&d, and have been involved in motorsports for years. make no mistake about it; these are, and have been, true suspension companies.
companies like k-sport (and megan afaik) do not make their products. they are pieced together from the catalog of an oem company somewhere in the hills of who knows where. r&d is limited to "this option sucked, let's try this one". they do not engineer them from scratch.
now to be perfectly honest, with the support of those who were too cheap to buy quality suspension the budget companies have grown. accordingly, the quality of product has improved with it. not long ago k-sport was known to go through a complete round of replacment dampers before the warranty period was over and megan products were known to spontaniously combust. kudos to them for improving i guess but enough people bought them before that that, just like a knockoff, their success has been at the cost of the innovative companies.
so i have no doubt that the budget options are good enough for a car like the 460... personally, i'll stick with my trusty jics. more than that, i'll put them up against megan or k-sport in any regard. imo, it''s a shame that for so many it's so much harder to justify spending a little more than it is taking shorts on what you pay for.

If I owned a LS460 and wanted suspension only thing that would be on my mind is Air Runner. If you can afford that car you can shell out $4500 for suspension.
I'd rather drive it stock for as long as it took to save up for quality suspension. How can you buy a flagship Lexus model and buy the cheapest suspension on the market?? I don't get it.
Just my 2 cents.
