Is there anyone using Airlift air ride ? about rear shock .

[froggyfly]

Can the original rear shocks (or other Replacement shock like KW） can be used with Airlift bag on the Golf6 GTI Airlift air ride system?
Will it make any mistake ? Is it same low as the Airlift rear shock?

I am pretty sure you can use the original, I dont think the rears will go as low

ya u can use the stock ones, air lift ones, konis, kw, fks.... it just determines what kind of lift you get.

im pretty sure stock ones go higher than the airlift ones if im not mistaken

So, stock ones can getting a higher riding height than Airlift's, is it?

and all shocks will have a same low height when I air out?

[Boost Logic]

Stock shocks will not appreciate the low driving and are going to be more prone to blow out. Air lifts have a very short shock body and will give you the most drop unless you can use some from a coilover kit you have or something. IMO for over the money and get bilsteins. That's what I did, yeah I don't tuck as hard as the airlift rear guys, but I'm willing to bet my ride quality is better.
