I'm not likely to step up to the Airrex system, but it sounds like the KW V3s with non-RFTs could be my next investment.
You'll not look back

KW V3s are around $2500-$3000 new?

Airrex Gen3 struts are around $3100
Airlift 3H Management with 4 gal tank, dual compressors and harness around $2200-$2400
Installation, is depending on what your criteria is. Mine was to be stealth as possible. I've lost about 5% of my trunk space, the rest is hidden. But anywhere from $1500 for basic install to around $5000+ for an ultra bespoke install.

I didn't run the Vreds. I've ran 4 different tyres.
Bridgestone Dueler H/P Sport RFT: Never again!
Pirelli P-Zero RFT: They feel great for a RFT, no way near as jarring as other RFT (although with air suspension I feel I have a small advantage over coil springs)
Pirelli Scorpion Non-RFT: Decent, but there little on the noisy side. Grip is OK but for all season tyre I found wet grip to be poor. Its a 10 year old tyre design, other tyre manufactures have improved compounds to a noticeable degree in that time.
Continental Sportcontact 6: Ultra grippy, extremely quiet and smooth. These tyres actually come with a warning that they are ultra pliable rubber. They look awesome too with extra rim protection
