AIRBAGS

I have decided to go ahead and get airbags. Anyone know of a place in Houston that can do airbags for a good price and can do a good quality job.

Hey Vu, I know a few of the people you hang out with are riding on airbags. I just want to know how does it ride. smooth, rough, bouncy[IMG]i/expressions/face-icon-small-confused.gif[/IMG][IMG]i/expressions/face-icon-small-confused.gif[/IMG] I don't want to pay a lot of money on airbags and then not like the ride. I drive my car a lot everywhere. It is my daily driver so I want a comfortable ride.

Hey guys, my friend has a white 2k1 and he just got airbags on his ride not too long ago. He says it drives really smooth too. He got all his done and installed for $2300 at a place on 1319 Crosstimbers called CVT (Car Van Truck) Mufflers & Performance. Also this CVT has another location on 122 East Roselane, but I'm not sure where that location is around. Hope this helps some of you guys.

Is he using airbags or airrods? Also is that the place with the white Navigator in the front with bags? Do you know if his car is bouncy? Does it ride better than Ground Control and Konis. That is what I have now but I want air ride and I keep hearing that the ride sucks. I will give CVT a call.

He is using airbags on his ride not airrods and he says it rides really smooth. I've never rode with him in it but along the side of him and it really seemed like a smooth ride. Also I have a friend that has an Impala with bags and I rode in it and it was a nice smooth ride. The guy with the white 2k1 gave me a card for that CVT place but I've never been by the location but there is a pic of a white Navigator on it with bags so I'm sure thats the place your talking about. Definitely give them a call and let me know what they say, cuz maybe my friend can hook it up since he gets everything from there and they know him well. And plus he advertises this place so maybe he can get you a deal on them.

When you say smooth do you mean that it doesn't bounce much. I don't want my car to bounce like blown shocks or hydraulics. I just want my car to ride good enough for everyday driving since you know there is a lot of pot holes and bad rodes here in Houston.

hey, i have bags on my s10, it is a smooth ride.. it all really depends on how inflated you have the bags. if you are ridin low, then it will be kinda bouncey, but not like blown shocks or anything. just like a low rider. if you have them fully inflated, then it will still be bouncey,, but if you are somewhere in the middle( regular ridin height) then you will feel like you are in a caddy

Hey Vu, so are you going to get your airsuspension at your friends shop or at Alliance and are you going to get airrods or airbags. I called up CVT and I talked to some guy and he told me to go with airbags. He said it would be a smoother ride. Is this true[IMG]i/expressions/face-icon-small-confused.gif[/IMG] I talked to one of your friends two weeks ago at Westheimer. I think his name is Eric, he drives the Acura with the airrods. He told me airrods are better. So what should I do to get the best ride since I will be driving my car everyday. I wish I could afford another car so I could drive it everyday and use my civic for just car shows.

Okay guys I went over to Alliance in Pasadena and they told me airrods were better than airbags. They said if I want my car to ride like a Caddilac I should get accumulators put on. He said it will be a whole lot smoother but it will drop and raise a lil slower. I tried to go to CVT but I couldn't find the place.
