Why air on this car
The Toyota Wish is a compact MPV, and most that reach this list have been imported for exactly the look that low air suspension gives a tall-roofed people carrier: arches filled, stance planted, none of the van-like gap you get from the factory ride height. Because it carries seven seats and whatever they bring with them, that height also needs to come back for real use.
That is the case for air over a fixed drop. Run it low for a show or a meet, then lift it again for the school run, a supermarket ramp or a pothole-scarred side street, without the car ever feeling like a compromise either way. The front struts use a rubber top mount, so steering feel and road noise stay close to what the Wish left the factory with.
The rear uses a fixed-camber aluminium mount. If you want sharper front-end response, the pillowball option trades a little more road noise for that. Struts and Bags suits an owner running their own management; the tiers above add finer control and, eventually, presets that return the car to height automatically.
What's in the kit
Struts and bags
Struts and bags is the air suspension hardware without any management: four vehicle-specific struts with 36 levels of damping adjustment and the air bags that go on them. Choose it if you already run management you want to keep, or you are buying the RC1 or RC2 controller and tank separately.
Who it suits: Owners keeping their existing management or choosing their own, who need only the struts and air bags.
- Four vehicle-specific struts and four air bags
- 36 levels of damping adjustment
- No tank, compressor, valves, remote or wiring included
- For existing management or separately chosen RC1/RC2
- Bolt-on fit, no cutting or welding
- Rubber top mount standard; pillowball optional

Universal
The entry kit. Four 36-way adjustable struts with air bags, a 20-litre tank, compressor and a pair of mechanical switches with a dual-needle gauge on a bracket. You raise and lower the car by hand from the cabin, reading pressure off the gauge. Bolts on with no cutting or welding.

Super Performance
Super Performance moves to eight solenoid valves and pressure sensors on all four bags and the tank. Each corner can be set separately, and the AFH memory remote shows every pressure on screen and holds four saved heights. No cabin gauge or switches are needed, and the faster valves cut a full height change to two to five seconds.
Who it suits: Drivers who want corner-by-corner pressure control and saved heights, with a damping tune aimed at handling.

Fitment notes
- Front top mount: Rubber top mount. The standard fitment on McPherson-strut cars. Rubber isolates the body from the strut for the quietest ride, at the cost of a little precision. Camber is not adjustable on this mount.
- Rear top mount: Aluminium top mount. A solid machined mount with no rubber in it, so more of the road comes through to the body but the strut stays precisely located. Camber is not adjustable on this mount.
- A pillowball front top mount (camber adjustable) is available as an optional upgrade — there is a surcharge for changing the standard top-mount setting. Ask us when ordering.
- Variant: Type 1.
- Application note: TYPE 1.
- Listed by the factory as: WISH (TYPE 1).
- Built to order — the typical lead time is around 21 working days from the date of purchase to UK delivery. We confirm the lead time for your kit before you pay.
Going struts and bags only?
Five years against oil leaks, with a service every two years
AirForce covers its air suspension struts against oil leakage for five years. To keep that cover, the struts need to come back for inspection and maintenance every two years; the manufacturer treats the service as a condition of the warranty, so book it in and keep the paperwork.
Damage caused by suspension components rubbing against an inflated air bag is not covered, which is why we ask your fitter to cycle the system to full height and check clearances before they hand the car back.
Compressors, air bags and the electronic control box and remotes carry the manufacturer’s separate terms, and electronic parts may need to go back to the factory for repair. Ask us for the current wording before you order.
None of this affects your statutory rights as a UK consumer. If a product is faulty, your rights under the Consumer Rights Act 2015 apply alongside the manufacturer’s warranty, and your contract is with us as the retailer.
