I was wondering, when up grading your front suspension what would be better the air shocks, like a kit from airkewld, or a coil over kit form red design9?

I heard that the air shocks would be as god as the coil overs if you want it to handle well is this true?

thanks

i don't claim to be a suspension specialist, but ask yourself the last time you saw a race car with bags. i would go coilover, although it can be overkill itself. just depends what you are planning on doing with the car.

I was reading over the Red design 9 article again. And came up with another question.

If I use the kit does this mean I don't need dropped spindles? Will I have any of the ill problem assoicated with the adj beams? Will the geometry still be good?


thanks

thanks again
