Well, I can adjusted the way I want. from 1 to 4 where 1 is very hard and 4 is very soft.

Since I drive my car like a F1

I set up on 2 so I dunt damage them.

You can have them really really soft more than our stock, but than you would have to drive carfully and smothly

With pan tank or with the regular tank you will end up with no space for the spare tire.

But, why would you want a spare tire? throw it out to make your ride lighter, faster and save some gas. Unless you live in the country and no one will help you if you got flat in the side of the road.

I have a Lexus not a civic. If I am going to buy sonmething, the quality should be fair for the car.

Imagine I got some carp air bag suspension to save some money and than In the Hwy or a curve the bag explode and my car role over. I will end up paying more than $20000 if not my life.

Basiclly ,this is how I see it. I might be wrong, but at lease I feel safe.

thats true! i loved the quality of my airrunner on both my previous cars!
