I don't really have time today (being my B-day ) to research air suspension but i will need to make a decision in the next couple of weeks on what to do...

i have a 2008 IS250 AWD.... im interested in going with Air suspension but have a few questions...

1. Is there a bolt-on AIR suspension for AWD models....

2. I drive roughly 60mi everyday and once a month travel to surrounding states for NASA-se Track Events... (im not tracking the IS250) I usually have a packed car... 4 people and a truck fully loaded with luggage.... most events are about 3 1/2 - 5 hours away....

..... is going with AIR suspension going to be OK knowing this?

3. Should I just stick my foot in my mouth and go with coilovers? I want to go strictly VIP with the IS250... some car shows, meets, etc.... but its still my daily driver.

 

1). Idk ide have to search it myself.

2). should be fine.. air suspension can be adjusted so with a packed car + luggage u can make your cars height so that it doesnt sag.. perdy much make it look like it doesn't have people in it.

3). if you wait. its cheaper but u get the suspension sag with a fully loaded car + luggage.. imagine lowered + going lower even more with the added 400+ lbs.

JUST SEARCH... if you can type out a topic then im sure you can search. doesnt take that much time. if u dont do it why should we? :] gluck!

 

once in a while, do you do spirited driving? If so...coilovers.

 

pm isuxel or djkhanvict, check the official air suspension thread, they know their stuff.

 

you can do a UAS setup, just swap your springs with bags, rolling on bags is pretty comfy for dd, not great for spirited driving
having 4 people will be no problem, you can just higher the psi on your cags, just dont go over the limit, please get legit gauges!

the other thing you can look at is cup kits, these will sit on top of your coilovers which give you performance and allow you to go over bumps when you need it

 

Air isn't bolt on but it isn't too bad of a install. AIR is a show stopper for meets! BTW I have a kit for sale lol.

 

so, what did you end up getting?
