er not sure

we use airbags with leaf springs here - are good but unsure how to go with this.

I'm still looking at an outlander strut or ford escape strut to get stock look with more travel.

For offroading ...

I have my doubts...

Adjustable ride height - yes - long travel (required for proper articulation) - I don't think so.

One of the most attractive things (and also frustrating, when you have to work on it) about the iO is that the stock suspension is relatively soft with long travel - it soaks up the bumps like few vehicles I've seen.  My Grand Vitara (by comparison) has more of a "sport" suspension.
