Truhart Air Plus Air Suspension | 2005–2007 Subaru WRX STI Air Struts

Truhart Air Plus Air Suspension Review: Air Struts for 2005–2007 Subaru WRX STI

The 2005–2007 Subaru WRX STI has earned its reputation as one of the most capable AWD performance cars ever built. While the factory suspension delivers excellent handling, enthusiasts looking for adjustable ride height and show-ready stance often turn to complete air suspension systems.

The Truhart Air Plus Air Suspension Kit is designed specifically for the 2005–2007 Subaru WRX STI, replacing the factory struts with adjustable air struts that allow you to raise or lower the vehicle at the touch of a button when paired with an air management system.

Featuring 50mm dual-tube dampers, adjustable camber plates, and double-bellow air springs, this kit is aimed at enthusiasts who want the flexibility of both street drivability and aggressive ride height adjustment.

Note: This kit includes the air struts only. An air management system, air tank, compressor(s), airlines, fittings, and electronic controls are typically required to complete an air suspension installation.

Adjustable Ride Height

One of the biggest advantages of air suspension is the ability to instantly adjust ride height.

Benefits include:

  • Lower stance for shows
  • Increased clearance for driveways
  • Better practicality for daily driving
  • Adjustable appearance
  • Improved versatility

Unlike lowering springs or coilovers, ride height can be changed without manually adjusting suspension collars.


50mm Dual-Tube Dampers

Truhart equips the Air Plus system with 50mm dual-tube shock absorbers.

Dual-tube dampers provide:

  • Comfortable street ride
  • Consistent damping performance
  • Good durability
  • Reduced road harshness

They are well suited for daily-driven performance vehicles.


Adjustable Camber Plates

The inclusion of adjustable camber plates provides additional suspension tuning options.

Benefits include:

  • Improved wheel alignment
  • Better tire contact during spirited driving
  • Additional clearance for aggressive wheel fitment
  • Easier alignment after lowering

Proper alignment remains essential after installing any adjustable suspension system.


Double-Bellow Air Springs

The kit uses double-bellow air bags on all four corners.

Advantages include:

  • Larger air volume
  • Improved load support
  • Smooth ride quality
  • Progressive spring characteristics
  • Wide ride-height adjustment range

Double-bellow designs are commonly found on performance-focused air suspension systems.


Daily Driving Benefits

When paired with a quality air management system, the Truhart Air Plus kit offers several everyday advantages.

Potential benefits include:

  • Easier driveway clearance
  • Adjustable ride height for road conditions
  • Improved comfort over rough pavement
  • Reduced scraping on steep inclines
  • Convenient parking height adjustments

Performance Considerations

Although air suspension technology has advanced significantly, suspension tuning remains important.

Proper setup can help achieve:

  • Predictable handling
  • Consistent ride quality
  • Balanced cornering
  • Improved stance
  • Street-friendly drivability

Enthusiasts who frequently participate in motorsports may still prefer dedicated coilover systems depending on their performance goals.
