About air suspension...

I want to know if the rear wheels that are cambered out are just for show when parked or if air suspension is dropped and goes to back to normal camber and height when it's raised up?

camber changes (usually becomes more negative) as the suspension compresses. the amount of camber you have on your car(even when intentionally increased for looks or clearence) is dependant on the suspension components nautural "camber curve" and control arm position. the lower you are the more camber you usually have and the opposite when you raise the car. sorry if i got technical on ya!:shrug:

got it??

So the car doesn't roll all day like that? Thanks!

This might sound funny, but I live in a subdivision and I have to pass through about 8 speed bumps a day just in the community and I have to drive to about 4 more at the mall and there are a lot of messy roads almost everywhere I go to... Could the air suspension lift the car enough to pass through the really bad roads we have in Las Vegas (most of them have an "F" rating.) and save the expensive body kit and the wheels themeselves from being crushed by the 2 inch or more high bumps and the roads that are in really bad shape?

I want to know how I could have a VIP styled Lexus/Infiniti and still avoid damage to the body kit when I cruise in the car.

the car rolls whatever height the person wants it to. a lot of eople see air ride as a way to ride low and park lower. not just to drive like a 4x4 and park dumped. with ai yiu can ride both higher than stock and lower than stock

Yes its possible. Just run a higher ride hight and larger wheels. It wont have the show car stance, but theres a reason why its called show car stance.

Its all accessories. If you want, you can put a kit or stay stock.

It dosnt matter aslong as you keep it a VIP platform and stay in style.

You wouldn't wear tennis shoes with a Gucci suit pretty much. haha
