the problem with air is that in the front there's barely any clearance and you'll have to switch to 9 inch wheels unless you want to risk popping the bags. I'm not 100% sure on that since noel is running bags with his fat ass wheels but everyone else seems to have run into issues. are you going to be installing the turbo kit on your own? i'd like to mess with my engine but i'm loving the reliability on this car.

@PradiG, that picture is on point..I love your wheels man. and btw Lol what you said earlier, I feel bad for all the people that have real equips

the problem with air is that its air, looks ugly rolling, crazy low spring rates, take up too much room. If you needed the extra lift id say try looking into cups

jajaja I'm not a big fan of how cars rolling aired up look either. You can still stay that low if you want though. I mean look at the daisuke frs, one of my favorite cars. Dudes got a corvette engine in there lol and he drives this low freakin baller.

i know several people with air that messed up their fenders badly due to the suspension travel . Airs cool for people that park hard i just appreciate the look of a car driving low. im on 10k full stiff all around and its still too soft for me. And bag-over-coil totally different, and take up even more room than airbags from what ive heard. its like taking dampers that are valved for crazy stiff springs and putting soft ass springs (bags) on them. Not sure how harsh that can be on the damping and/or effect the ride.

Yeah I know a guy from Floss Design that would recommend air cups over bags. So I've been really considering getting some for my car
