just curious as to if anyone has used these and what their feedback is. want to do coilovers for the rear, but want to keep the air. so not sure what I am going to do yet. just want the best suspension without spending thousands of dollars. want to be able to handle and take turns better. any suggestions? I heard about this brand and was looking at the QA1 from NAAKA. I know those work with the bags. no matter what, going to eventually do the rear control arms, watts link, and coilovers for the front. and sway bars. any other suggestions? Thanks in advance

Keep the stock RAS and get Metco rear upper & lower control arms, Watts link and Addco front and rear sway bars.

ok. I have also been doing some research and was seeing a lot of people cut one coil off on the front and just adjust the air in the rear. how do you adjust the sensor in the rear? and do I need to change anything else in the front if I cut a coil?

That suncore is a rear spring conversion from air springs. It is NOT a coil over. To the best of my knowledge, there are NO true coilovers for the rear for these cars. The mount is not strong enough alone, it is designed strictly for a shock. Stick the air springs and shocks for rear and the control arms and watts.
Adjusting the rear ride height is by sliding the height adjustment by small increments. (CV LX Sport exactly the same set up as Maraduer so dont' worry about that)

do I need to change anything else in the front if I cut a coil?I believe you may have to get the SPC camber bolts to gain enough range for proper adjustment. Hopefully someone who's done it will confirm this.

Be aware that if you cut the springs you'll most likely need new camber bolt kits to keep the camber within specs.
Your ride will change with shorter coils in the front.
