Man thats tuff, I think it depends on what kind of car you got. I have Air and the shit is fast, It can hop the back end off the ground even though I dont care if it does. If you can do hydro with accumilators then do that. hydros seem to get the car way past stock as far as ride height, and with accumilators Ive heard good things about ride quality. One mo...I heard you cant do three wheel with air,well there wrong,I hit the front left corner and the back right corner and went into a sharp U-turn and got the front tire off the ground, not by much. My friend can do a standing rear three wheel. I hope that helps

It just depends on the car and what you want to do. If you want to hop or Dance your car or truck you probally need to do Hydro. But if you want to go up and down and play a little bit, i would say air. Both are good its just up to you. I know Air is alot cleaner if a hose breaks or leaks.

Three wheel with air has a lot to do with the type of car. But yes, it can be done....

And air can hop your car with ease. But just like hydros, all it takes is money.....
