Not cb specific but airbags like easystreet or airrunner will ride pretty good at a specific air pressure/height. Typically won't go as as they should due to shock length. Air cylinders/cans don't ride very good have some fitment issues.

Modern hydraulics with accumulators work, fit, and ride the best on unibody fwd cars. Will go lower and have more lift. The ride will be more floaty/buicky but can changed by adjusting accumulator from their preset pressures.

shock length what do you mean by that because i was talking to a friend the other day about it and he just ran the air bags no shock in there and according to him it was a plug and play
ive thought about hydroholics but i didnt seem to fond of high pressure lines in or around the car, for the moment anyways

You have to have a shock since an airbag is just a spring. You need to a shock to dampen the airbag. The shock I am refering to goes through a sleeve style airbag and bolts in like stock.



There is no good way to run a conventional airbag. There is no room for it. Some people insist on trying and usually those are the one going full custom and cutting out major structure at the same time.

I have easystreet on my Integra. The same one as the front of the accord and it rubs the spindle and the inside body both. I am switching it to hydros eventually.

I am installing hydros on my CRV because air wouldn't work the way I needed on it either.

Your friend might have of been referring to air cylinders/cans as airbags. They are just an aluminum cylinder with a shaft. They have very little internal air space for air to compress and and no rubber to flex resulting in a bad ride. They need to have a small airtank tee'd in with each one to hold more air to compress to try to get ride quality.
