From the OP, emphasis me:

This would be good for the daily drivers who want to put splitter on their car but want to make it up steep driveways or even better solution to get track cars on trailers easier.

I have no opinion as to the effectiveness of air ride on a daily driver that has been lowered for style and will not add any further comments to that application. I am of the opinion that if the ride height is low enough to prohibit daily driving for performance reasons the inconvenience of manually adjusting the ride height is worth saving ~20lbs, not to mention the complication of an air adjustable suspension. (and worth noting that explaining how simple the tech is will not sway me, just an opinion like how I don't like white cars)
