Great question Tulio, Thanks for starting this thread!!
It’s hard to find feedback/ opinions on the IMs as they are relatively new to the US market and a lot more people have experience with the Bilsteins.
I’m currently contemplating the same 2 products and have similar needs.
I currently have stock suspension on 2nd Gen double cab long bed.
I’m currently leaning toward the IM FCP kit. Med up front and soft for the back sounds like what I might like best.
The fact that the IMs are rebuildable is very appealing to me for lower cost long term with comparable initial investment. Whereas the 6112s at end of life would have to be replaced. Highway ride is very important to me because it’s my daily for 30 min commute. But I’m getting into some recreational trails and also plan to get a small travel trailer for the wife and I to do some camping.

Fyi, 6112s are servicable. Head over to shock surplus. They service them in house down in SoCal.
