Bagged max height?

For those of you on bags, how high can you make the ride height with your setup? I'm thinking about getting an air setup because my car is a bit too low for winter driving. If I can get nice wheels and a low look in the summer, and jack it way up with the stock wheels in the winter that would be ideal. Have any pictures?

not to be rude, butt your questions can be answered by reading the description of the actual air bags.

Airrunner suspension is designed to provide stock-like ride quality with the full adjustability of a full aftermarket air bag suspension. This setup is primarily used on cars that are driven daily in various conditions. Many use it to lower their car and have an option to lift it when there is a need to go on a steep driveway or when driving on bad quality road. The handling characteristics of a vehicle do not get severely affected comparing to your regular air bag suspensions. The ride is still very comfortable and the car is able to take corners with confidence.



The air suspension can be roughly divided into 2 groups. One is the group of Firestone ACC OEM bellows bags, The 2-ply structured bags have excellent durability and are fitted mainly to McPherson strut type vehicles. The other is the group of Bridgestone sleeve airbags with the similar structural design as that of LEXUS air suspension and ensures the highest possible riding quality. The sleeve bags are rebuildable and the air bags easily replaced, and are suitable for long-term service. To attain the highest possible riding quality for each type of vehicle, KYB dampers are used in the Air Runner suspension and suitable damping valves for each type are carefully determined after all the applications have been verified with test runs. In addition, a 4 level adjustment damping mechanism is incorporated in some types of vehicle. ACC designs for type of vehicle, domestically fabricates air suspension suitable for various types of vehicles.

The full standard kit is described here and there are plenty of extra options and modules to choose from (see them here).

This suspension is made in Japan and it is exceptional for the parts quality, dependability, versatility and ride characteristics. This is one of those parts that will set your car apart from everybody else. We are proud to be the official dealer and installer of this product.

Sorry I'm looking for how much higher than stock ride height, I don't see that information in that description, or others I have read. I'm wondering if I would need to run them with strut spacers to get anything extra. It looks like most kits are designed around using standard coil overs and it won't help me if all the way up on a drop setup is lower than stock or even just the same.

right, it's not designed to go higher than stock.
on the flip side, it's designed to go lower than stock.
