    if its already lowered with an adjustable panhard rod thats setup right it shouldnt matter... it shouldnt go low enough to push the wheel right into the guard...

    personally i think bags should be left for the show cars..
    are they really practical for a daily driver??

    why don't you just get ultra lows and then compress them?

    No! Go the bags dude . . . I reckon it'd be sweet to have a set on a street Calais. As for the panhard issue . . . maybe email Tubular Suspension Systems . . . I'm sure they can give you an answer. Let us know how it goes

    bags are for daily use
    I have had them for 5 years now and never had any problems

    You need the triple convoluted on the front for Commodores to get the ride quality, handling and lift
    My car handles better than lowered springs but I don't have the damage issues like speed bumps and driveways
    Once you set you adjustable panhard so it clears when dumped there will no clearance issues

    Go the bags
    TSS is where I got mine

    Thanks mate what do you mean by triple convoluted on the front and are you able to make it basicly sit on the ground or does some thing have to be modified to get it that low

    Cheers Benji

    there's a VN wagon in my area with air bags actual car looks pretty shit but it's ride height is unreal!!! the boys in blue in our area seem to give him a bit of trouble though you see him often on the side of the road and the boys going over it... probably cause of the way it looks to!!lol
