ive always wanted to bag it and have something ive NEVER SEEN done or have something my neighbor has also .
so the ti is already rare so i added my fab skills and layed it out ,
its still not low enough tho . . BUT THE RIDE .. OMG is like a caddy!!! love it 100 times better than my lowering springs . __________________ was the 1 an only Bagged Ti on 19's!! | | | | | 06-09-2009, 06:19 AM | #5 | | Senior Member Join Date: Sep 2007 Location: asdfasdf Posts: 10,002 |

ive been on s-10 forum for awhile now and, most my parts came from the venders and group buys i guess- on the forum.
i spent like months trying to find 1 bagged ti and couldnt find ANYTHING for help so i just had to go off of HOPE that i dont cut anything i need. and a lot of test fits especially since im running a 19" rim __________________ was the 1 an only Bagged Ti on 19's!! | | | | | 06-09-2009, 07:52 AM | #8 | | Senior Member Join Date: Apr 2008 Location: Austin Posts: 3,059 |

The tires aren't my thing, but more power to ya for doin something different. I wanted to bag my Ti for the driving performance since bags, used in the correct situation, are a performance suspension. Plus it would be nice to be able to lay out while sitting still and ride a little lower than stock going down the road. __________________

Airbags are not my thing, but you did a great job with them, pretty original on a ti! I just hope you don't kill anyone when you crash because your tire failed. __________________ -Jeff

Your stock base model suspension will handle and perform much better than air bag suspension. That being said, it looks cool but you won't see me doin that to my car, no way. | | | | | 06-10-2009, 12:20 AM | #13 | | Senior Member Join Date: Dec 2007 Location: Nashville, TN Posts: 699 |
In certain circumstances, it is considered a sport suspension. I have seen clips on TV from performance shows about adding them to older muscle cars to help them handle better. I wasn't really aware it wouldn't help our cars but I should have figured that. And yes, I understand that there is a huge difference between our cars and 60's and 70's muscle cars. __________________
