Aside from cost, two of the downsides I see (which maybe they can correct) are (1) the "spring rates" they set are the same as the OEM ones so if you need something different (e.g., for auto cross) you're out of luck; and (2) the system is a "coil-over"-like system in front only, with the rear "air-ride" set up using the same placement as the OEM springs (i.e., inboard rather than an outbord "coil-over" design) with all the issues that set up has.

I imagine Chris has some other thoughts.
