Default Coilover Durability

I've decided that the double-adjustable Variant 3's are nice, but overkill for my car, which is a daily-driver with aggressive driving and track days in the future.

So I've narrowed my choices down to the PSS9's and Variant 2's, but I was curious about the durability.

The Variant 2's are full stainless steel. I would be leaning towards the PSS9's due to the slightly more streetable valving and springs, and cheaper price, but up here in the Pacific Northwest it rains quite a lot. I'm worried the PSS9's won't hold up to the elements as well.

Any opinions on which of the two would be a better fit?

The KW's will definitely hold up due to the materials used. If there is no snow then I wouldn't worry about corrosion on either since there would be no salt.
