Feed back....air bag suspension on w210.... height adjustability...depending on how much pressure you put in each bag and the height your are at...rides 2 notches better than factory and handles better than my h & r cupkit....I will post more pics later.....(O)(o)\\======//(o)(O)

I am curious as to what system you used? and the price... Looks pretty nice slammed like that for parking, but do you get enough clearance for the front wheels? what about the camber? I would love to put one of these kits in my wagon so I can jack it up on rough roads and slam it when I park...

same here. i wonder if it would be adaptable to the W124 wagons. that would be a really nice feature to have.

would be hard to drive that low on these crappy queens roads. could come in handy around some of those cavernous pot holes.

I do not drive the car that low cause I cannot...and believe me, this is the best investment I have ever done for any car that I have. I have the best of both worlds... this was a custom kit that was made for my car, but sure as hell can be adaptable to any other car. I've been through many German cars and suspensions and nothing comes close to the ride and handling of the airbags.
(D2, yes I am Asif's cousin)
I can driver at any ride height I want to, from my cup kit height which I think is the lowest or 2 inches above factory height. At the cup kit height, it rides similiar to it. At one inch above cup kit, it rides like factory and two inches above cup kit height...floating on air and still handles like a ****... the setup I have has three customs settings that I can program. L, M and H, it is neat cause I can set L for cupkit height, M for regular drop and H for factory or above for smooth highway cruising...(my signature pic is with H and R cup kit #1 springs)...No regrets..

As for a camber problem...it solved mine cause I ride at factory height most of the time and its perfect.

Really that looks like a killer system, where is the air pump? Trunk? Again, how much did this run you $$? Do you know what components were used? I really want this for my wagon. Good look mayn

Sean's Sister--
topez looks tight.......you got some ballz though to do air bags on a benz......i've had a few buddies that have done it, one did it on his lexus gs400 and he had problems sometimes. I think once one of the bags poped and the car droped and he also hit a tree but for the pimp factor it's tight......you don't have to worry about scraping your bumper on a slope or anything.......
does it have that floaty ride?

Ok... I know I'm old, but I don't understand why someone would do that to their car? It reminds me of this type of thing...
But, if you like it... that's all that matters!
