Add to that most coilover systems are height adjustable, it is not difficult to develop a tried and true process of raising and lowering the car yourself with just a jack, the wrench that came with the coilovers, and some diligence, you would have to watch the toe and get a consistent baseline, maybe mark the rods for whatever position is your track setting and your autocross setting and your DD setting.

a coilover strut vs air ride strut is only a couple pound difference. Then add some wiring, hallow plastic air line, air tank, compressor and a management system and you combined a whopping 20 pounds over coilovers. Which still ways less than stock suspension. I wouldn't rule out air ride just due to weight
