Default S70

I've got at least one blown shock on my S70 GLT, and I'm looking to upgrade. Most people are looking for something a bit stiffer and lower than stock, I'm looking for something smoother riding, possibly air bags or air cylinders. Curious if anyone knows of some Volvo specific applications out there?

these arent air bags but they are some good options. you have probably seen this site already but whatever. a little pricey too (at least i think so)

Thanks, but those are made to lower the car and stiffen the suspension up for handling, kind of the opposite of what I'm looking for.

An airbag suspension wont be good. I was at a Volvo meet in August that I setup. A guy was there with an S80 on airbags, he said the ride quality sucked big time.

Why not get the Bilstein's not the HD's the OEM equivilant.
