★★★★★ Official Air Ride Thread ★★★★★

This thread is dedicated to those that ONLY ride on air

For those that drive low....and park even LOWER!!

I guess I'll start






and thats not the lowest i can go. I am the first 7th Gen max on air, so i still have a few kinks i need to work out.

thanks fellas, this is the first Ksport airtech kit for the 7th generation maxima. after months of talking to big air suspension companies, ksport finally developed the kit. Got the kit a week ago and installed it 2 days later. still got a few tweaks but i like it...rides next to stock and i go back to stock height with switches. MORE PICTURES TO COME.

flip2cho- direct bolt on with very minimal modding. have to cut my fenders because of my rims.
zero- you got it Work Varianza T1S

this. not real big on the camber of an air drop, but if it's fine at ride height, meh.
(some f-tards I have seen spend more money on tires a year than their car is worth, cause they ignore it.)
is that as low as it goes?
Glad to start seeing some real mods on a 7th. maybe the car doesn't suck as bad as I expected

Those are one of my favorite luxury style wheels. They look great. What specs are you running on the wheels / tires?

For those who have the ksport system,

Do you know how similar the strut assembles are between the regular coilovers and the air struts? From the picks I've seen it looks as if it is simply a replacement section to the spring/perch assembly.

I ask because I have ksports now and I am super digging the air ride. Its not hard to source the rest of what's in the kit.
