99 RS question.

[XX_hollywood_XX]

Ok, I have had this car about two weeks and the suspension is bottoming out from where their is not enough travel. I have a set of 18's on it and it has about 1" of clearance from the tire to the fender. In curves it rubs the tire if I hit a bump. The coilovers are adjusted all the way up. Question is how can I tell if the coilovers are shot, the shock's are shot, or I need to do something else. It scares me with the tire rubbing the fender around curves. I really don't want to go down to 16 or 17 inch rims, but the car is riding so ruff I could be in one of those chocolate milk comercials. Also, what would adding an airbag kit rid like? Thanks.

If you want adjustable rides....get air cylinders Coilovers are ment to sit super low (IMO). 18x9 rims for me on a stock suspension were wonderful....just I bottomed on my rear driver side, the spring back there sux.

How are the air cylinders as far as performance goes, compared to shocks? I know I am going to have to change either the tires, or the shocks, but rim's are not cheap, and then I have to go through the hassel of selling my Motigie MR7 rims and the tires. So I would rather adjust the suspension to something that isn't dropped as low, and will still give me fairly high performance. Thanks.
