Question: How does air ride suspension go in terms of handling?

[ScienceVR6]

but don't several sporting mercedes run air ride?

easy to make it handle better while on air, just use good dampers, and good sway bars. You might get more body roll, if the air ride is set up wrong, ie no anti return valves, but sway bars can fix that too.

from what i have heard, air ride has improved dramatically

These guys are some of the best for airbags in australia, air struts are the way to go though no need to chop and change suspension just bolt straight in! Difference between hydraulic and air is just that; air suspension uses air to inflate bags raising the car whilst hydraulic uses fluid and alot of batteries.

I have talked to the guy from cali customs in melbourne

have you got any contact details for them??
Their website does not show anything.... would love to go out and have a look at some of their work and talk to them about their systems.
