Yes, You Can.

Hi guys I'm looking to get some advice and confirmation about fitment on air bags. I'm trying to run 18x9.5 & 18x10.5 with offset a little under 30. Possible? I heard that I can't even add much camber or I'll risk rubbing on the strut tower. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated. Name: ImageUploadedByTapatalk1421345064.210526.jpg

Hey buddy. SORRy for the late respinse but were not too well versed in wheel fitment when it comes to the platform. Best bet is to take some measurements.

It seems to me that lot of potential customers for air suspension stem from wishing show cars .. i wonder if there ever will be product fitting for me - like stock but which can be by simple press of button temporarily rised for going/parking over curbs without scratching underside/bumpers or temporarily going over deeper snow till getting to normal road, and then return to stock height. I imagine it as something to be used with stock or slightly lowered aftermarket shocks (to add mounting length for tiny rubber baloons within stock shock absorbers size). Imho it might be win-win for those not going for record low show ride drop, but just to enhance daily drivability, without any scare of reliability issues (if pressure completely lost - you simply get stock height back, perfectly drivable further), with known shock stiffness properties (for those that wish specific track setups), with lesser price (from such addon being just extra to existing shocks, smaller rubber air bages (and probably less capacity air tank or even without it, as normal state is deflated, and inflation needed temporarily), simpler electronics (just on for higher ground clearance, and off for normal driving, no steps between). About the only potential drawback in my eyes seems that while it should be possible to get stock shock lengths, travel will be less at that length, to leave place for mini airbags above shock absorber.

What you're describing is a cup kit.
