What's the ride like and driving hight?



Hi mate,

Its difficult to explain height without pictures, But..

The ride is not bad at all, I would have said theyre better than a **** set of coilovers.

The thing with air suspension is that the more air you have in the bags the harder the ride becomes.

So the best thing to do is to drive it as low and as practically as you can for best ride comfort. The beauty is that if you come across a speed bump you can simply flick a switch and up it goes in a matter of seconds.

You have to remove the ARB aswell which is a compromise on handling, But i guess you dont buy air suspension for the handling :)
