Air suspension or cup kit?
I am tired of scraping around in my daily driver, its time to go with an air suspension set up or a cup kit.
Since the car is a daily, I want suspension that is comfortable but still handles well. My main concern is reliability and durability.
What do you guys recommend?
Do you think cup kits are more durable than air ride?
If you recommend air, what set up is the most durable/reliable?

I've got an Aristo swap, so performance is important to me, as well as comfort.... so the cup kit is probably best for both, right?
What do you guys think of these brands of cups?:

These guys are in SoCal, I like that because they can install them and service them in the future if there are any issues.,
Then there's the SonicMS....

This would be the best for me because I live about an hour and a half from Mountain View.
I like them being so close just in case I have technical issues.

I emailed stance solutions, they don't currently make a cup to fit our coils. The guy said hopefully next year they will have cups that will fit our cars. There is a post about them in the main 2gs forum I believe a few pages back.

Have you measured your oil over shaft?

I have bc's and their website just says they use a 46mm diameter piston in a 53mm diameter damper body so I'm guessing the stance are too small for ours. The owner said the shaft of the damper is what needs to be 20/22mm. If I'm looking at the wrong specs, someone please tell me as I'd love to get some cups for a good price but I think I, along with many around here, am still waiting.
