Looks good & seems to be practical for the state of our roads.. but what's it like for hadling? - I'd have thought it'd be shite, but i may be wrong.

What sort of restrictions do you get for wheel sizes etc?... don't the bags scrub on wider wheels when they're collopsed?

Rayvern

Anyway, I know Ray @ Rayvern pretty well now...and they do there air suspension kit for £1250-1300 + Fitting which is around £500. It make a modified car very preactical again, so speed bumps are no problems etc...

Rayverns kits and skills are renowned around the modded car scene for being fantastic quality, ray takes a real pride in his work as well.

Give them a call.....

With airbags you set the ride height - when the car is set in a high or low positions you will loose perfromance in the vehicles handling, when you set the set to normal ride height you get the same performance as you would do on a set of lowering springs on uprated shocks.
