Guest polarity Posted December 17, 2002 Share Posted December 17, 2002 anyone ever tried putting this on a z/zx? billy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mike kZ Posted December 17, 2002 Share Posted December 17, 2002 The problem is they are not made for a strut suspension. But I read that Air Ride Suspensions is developing a strut system for compacts, that could be modified for a Z/ZX Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sumo Posted December 17, 2002 Share Posted December 17, 2002 Hypothetically, do you think that wider wheels could be used like in the case when coilovers are used? Or would the bags be a little too fat? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sumo Posted December 17, 2002 Share Posted December 17, 2002 Yeah, i was just wondering because most, if not all the air bag suspension stuff ive seen. The air bag is as big as the original spring. I mean the circumference of the spring. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We could provide our universal airstrut but you would have to fabricate the bracketry to install them in that car.
