For a couple of thousands more, I do hope the Air Runner is better than UAS bags.

I'm not a baller, so I can't afford so high of a standard.

I've been on UAS bags for a long time now, and I honestly can't complain about it's performance.

very true ... I haven't seen a movie about taking airrunner to the slide course .. and having a blast ..

I made this mistake of having an installer have my money and trusting his knowledge and letting him install Air-ride tech .. skw7000/9000 series bags on my car and watching them go out over and over ... and eventually a third time on the freeway going 80+ ....with me driving ...

I was looking into airrunner but did anyone know they don't just sell the shock/bag combo separate ? have to spend 4000.00 even if you have everything ...

which lead me to go with universal air ... and have been very happy since ...

Do they make an application for the E46 330? I was thinking of going with Airrunner for the BMW, but the more I thought about it the more I decided there is no value in it. I wouldn't be able to resell it later when I sell the car. Most wont care to have air on a BMW 3 series, and even if I parted it out I probably wouldn't find a buyer. This Ruberta set up though looks like it could be the ticket.

uh, any air suspension setup will handle like a track car if u dump it far enough....it will ride like **** but handle corners n such very well.

I also have UA on my GS3.....so far , so good

if i am reading the site correctly, i think the fitment application has more to do with the coilover you have, rather than what vehicle it's installed in?

that hopping ls was absolutely sick. an extreme example of the capabilities of the set-up, but an outstanding demo nonetheless.

Yeah thats what I think also. Ive been wanting to go with air for a while now but I keep hearing that you cant use it on tracks or take hard turns. But after all the reading and researching I think Im ready to take the leap. I could care less if it handles like crap. At least it will be performing like a champ!
