Default Air Bags

Hey I was just wondering how well air bags would work. If any one has done them on their c3 or seen them done. I have a old dully with air bags and the ride difference is amazing. Just wondering if it would make it better or worse.

Thoughts?

-Joe

This topic comes up every few months...do a search for "air ride"

I don't really feel like getting into this debate again, but in my personal opinion (because I have used an air ride set-up on a s10 blazer) it will make your car handle worse than it already does and adds another thing to the list of "worries and something else I have to maintain"

Personally my blazer did "ride" better going in a straight line, but the trade-offs made this modifications less feasible for daily driving......it's better left reserved for cars that is strictly 100% show cars and trailer driven.

Most people that install airbags don't do it for the ride quality, but more for the ablility to raise / lower thier cars on the fly.

Again that is my opinion.........
