I will almost definitely upgrade my suspension with air suspension. Would there be any clearance issues if I used a 6" diameter air spring? I work at AKTV8 in Michigan and we do a lot of software validation with the air manifolds, and like to use extreme vehicle scenarios like an 1800lb. 3 wheeled vehicle for test vehicles.

The rear suspension doesn't look like you could put a shock / spring unit that large a diameter on it - it is in tension. If you look closely, there are 2 rods on either side of the unit. For the front suspension, it is a little harder to see what the clearances are.
Being able to raise the vehicle a few inches at slow speeds over rough terrain (like potholed city streets) would be a great feature.
I want the system Audi has demonstrated, radar maps the roads contours and the suspension is actively managed to absorb bumps 100%, imperceptible to the occupant. Then small diameter, narrow, high pressure wheels become less of a compromise. The challenge is doing this efficiently.
