Air shocks or a trunk full of helium balloons.

My issue with air shocks is they change the suspension geometry and the way your whole suspension is supposed to work. I oversimplified my answer before

Yes, but you're missing the point. This will actually improve mileage and performance since his car is always going downhill now!

Air shocks should be the cheapest way, I just replaced mine for $48, good thing I did as I found a hole in the bladder when I pulled the old ones.

The leaf springs would also be a good solution but will cost a little bit more.

Come on guys, all of these cars we have are worth at least 10K or more, saving $150 and making the rear suspension useless seems almost insane to me. Dont cheap out. http://store.summitracing.com/partde...30#Application

Alright alright. BUT! (counter point). On a car that is not cheap, if cheap is $48 and not cheap is $208 SHIPPED, I would say the second option is also cheap, just not as cheap. haha, figure that one out!
