What exactly does a cup kit do?

A cup kit fits on top of coilovers and allows you to actually lift the car to get over obstacles. Many supercars come with them now so they can get into parking lots.

its kinda like air bags... raises your car when you want too

except you dont lose out your suspension because it does over your coilovers so no performance lost... on top of that if something were to happen with a cup kit... you can still go home.. you would be on your lowest setting while if you had airbags you would be stranded because it would be on the floor....

good for me cuz everything takes 2 weeks to arrive here... even overnight would still take 5-7 days to come to guam so airbags are outa the question for me unless i stock a spare bag in my house lol

So for my area (with shitty roads) I can drive around on a raised setting and when I get to an area with better roads lower it?

the only draw backs of cup kits is its only meant to raise your car for a couple of seconds... not prolonged amounts of time HOWEVER the brand phantom cup kits are a exception to this rule with cup kits... and so if you get a phantom cup kit yes you can raise your car drive past all the shitty roads and slam slam when the roads are nice
