    Due to new wheels are too big. So won't able to air out anymore. So want to moving on to coilovers. But if labor cost a lot. I would give up.

    It should be a crime to install air suspension. It looks so f***ing dumb.

    I guess the ability to change ride height "looks fucking dumb."

    Correct, the wheels were not meant to be inside the fender.

    Around 1500 to install. Depends on complexity of course. It's easier to uninstall than to install

    Why don't you get wheels that fit instead?

    I was quoted around the same to uninstall as to install them. The most logical fix I would say is to get new wheels

    Why waste the time and money to switch suspension? I understand if you can't air out but why go through all the trouble of having to put the car on stands if you wanted to change the ride height and lose the convenience of instantaneous adjustability with air? Just pick a height that allows you to drive the car and then leave it at that. Just seems like you're just going backwards to me...

    ^^^^
    Thinking the same thing. Is there a reason why the OP can't just adjust the height that would fit the new wheels and leave it at that?

    If your goal is to raise the car. Some coilsovers i delt with could never be adjusted to the max height. The max height was also a little less then the sports setup.
