dilemma? need advice
i want to get some opinions about suspension. i need to decide if either bags or full coilovers. i driver my **** hard daily but i also want the wow factor that air bags get. being able to lower my ****.but i got some info on bags and i would have to just be careful and be ready for **** to **** up. now im not sure if i want bags, i had an accord before and i messed with the suspension( coli overs) , but i hated the ride it gave me, all bouncy . dude i hated my ride. i was thinking of true coliovers, but i hate the fact that i will have to crank them up and down for adjustability. so i need some advice. either bags or coils. " what would you get"...

airbags wont ride good as fullcoilovers. since you drive hard daily. fullcoilover is the way to go. adjusting height isnt hard with fullcoilovers. b&g seems to go lowest, compare to tein basic/ss

First off, a set of "Bags" Will not handle nearly as well as a good shock/spring combo. The most probable reason your accord was so bouncy with the coilovers was that the shocks were either blown or to weak to properly dampin the springs. If you go with a short spring or higher spring rate you need the correct shocks to control them.
Second, if your cought up in the "WOW" factor then go ahead and get the bags.....
