Any BMW's on Air Ride??

[Zq-8_dawg]

I just got back from Import and truck bash at Indianapolis and saw a bunch of sweet rides on air ride. Out of 3 BMW's, which were mostly stock one had hydrolics, but no Air ride. I asked most of the leading air ride dealers that were present and no one had an application for a BMW. Does anyone know of any BMW's on air ride??? I know how to do the rear set up, but the front is what is getting me as of now.

no

i thought bling rims were bad, this is worse, no offense of course, hey i live in Indy too

not really, if u had air ride u could lower it for hi speed driving. the toureg, cayenne, etc...all use similar technolgy.

I don't think there's much of a market for it among the BMW aftermarket. Anything you did would have to be a custom set up.

Are you talking about something for a bling factor, or a self leveling air ride set up? Either way most of them are VERY expensive and the cheap ones are supposedly crap.

where in indy do you live i live on the northeast side fishers

I actually live in North Eastern Indiana.

The reason I want to go with air ride is because obviously no one else has it, making my 318ti even more different.

Air ride does not = Rice

the reason the cayenne has is it you might want to take the cayenne thru snow or such.... not to make it handle better lol

my friend has an aftermarket air ride setup on his Mustang LX...he isn't supposed to go over 100mph with it because it isn't stable or something like that...thats not performance, thats a riced out Mustang...

Wooohoo

My family has both a touareg and cayenne, both have air ride...it is pretty cool but not a thing that I would ever waste money on aftermarket


if by BMW you mean cadillac, then there are tons of them on air ride LOL

[Zapak4eva]

my dad's Lexus LX470 has air ride for lowering and raising it for offroad driving. The suspension can also be set to automatically raise and lower itself according to speed
i think

by air ride do u mean like hydrolics but with air bags? if so then a few bmw's here have it, i always see a touring 325i with it jumping around! its pretty cool but u have to have a air tank in the back or somewhere as well! hydrolics are illegal here!

[drz]

^^ If it is air, then they are pneumatics, like they use in the LX470, Range Rovers, and many other up-scale vehicles. Hydraulics imply a liquid is used.

wow, yet to see a BMW in a Low Rider Magazine, still like the girls though
