18incholdz Posted November 16, 2002 Report Share Posted November 16, 2002 does anyone know where i can get an air ride suspension to put on a 1995 olds cutlass supreme? I know it's possible to put one on it i just dont know where to get it...And another thing...I have 18x8 inch wheels on my car and they slightly stick out past the front fenders, when i do get the bags and lower it will it camber enough when lowered so the wheels dont hit the fender? or do i have to do something different to it so the wheels dont stick out as far?

90TGP Posted November 16, 2002 Report Share Posted November 16, 2002 Noone officially makes a kit for w-bodys, but it can be done. Ask for Bagged_GP on the http://www.clubgp.com forums under the 1988-1996 forums, he custom installed an air ride on his GP. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Justin Posted November 17, 2002 Report Share Posted November 17, 2002 If you rely on your suspension to tilt your wheels in at the top to clear your fenders, not only will it handle like a bus, but it will look like trash too, your tires will cup and wear weird. You should have gotten the right offset right away, that's the only real solution, other than fender flares I guess... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Whiskey River Posted November 18, 2002 Report Share Posted November 18, 2002 Even with the right amount of offset, would an 8 inch wide wheel fit under the front of a w-body? Seems like it might rub in hard turns. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
18incholdz Posted November 19, 2002 Author Report Share Posted November 19, 2002 with my car not lowered ther is no rub, but i'm not sure if there is gonna be when it is lowered....... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
J Posted November 19, 2002 Report Share Posted November 19, 2002 i could almost guarentee it! I have a 235/45/17 on mine and i'll find out if mine rub in a couple months(i have the rear coil overs on, but not the fronts cuz they don't make em yet) I bet mine will rub if i set the coilovers to the 3.75 inch drop that they can handle. you'd have to cut the fender out like the mini trucks to tuck 18's on a w-body (i'm bettin). Latet Jay this is just my 2 cents Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
