Talking Opinion on Air suspension Brands

Hey I'm planning on switching from coilovers to air suspension and was wondering which brand of air struts are the most reliable or what kind of experience people have had with ksport or airrex struts or if there are any other better air struts out there. I'm just on the fence about which brand to get and any input or personal experience would be appreciated

Best leading brand I know out of the bat is AccuAir.

I've sold a lot of Ksport kits, with ZERO issues. Same with D2.

Universal air for bags and struts is always nice too, and they keep it simple which saves money in the long run.

Shoot me a PM if you want some pricing on a kit

I'm running an airlift management system with airrex bags. But that's only because air lift at the time didnt have the bags for the IS.

Today they do. In my opinion a full air lift kit is the best bang for your buck in terms of quality and price.

Good choice going Accuair. I wouldn't choose another one if given the chance. I am pleased with my air struts that I got through them.....I don't know what brand they are.....TSR or something like that.

did you buy a vehicle kit from them? Since I looked and they only have the strut kit for the LS 460 and the SC 300/400.

Yes I did a year ago. I called and talked to them directly. They were extremely helpful and hooked me up with a complete kit for a good price.
