I know a guy with the D2 racing kit on his mk1 and the front air bags are quite big, he's had to replace one due to the wheel rubbing on the bag, (standard width and offset rm's)
I've just fitted a second hand bss air ride kit on my mk1 with 2 way manual, handles a bit 'boaty' Definitely worth getting though
I'm rimming 7j teledials with 20mm adaptors with 165 50 15s. What do you think???

Will it be harder to fit the kit with solenoids rather than the paddle kit?

Looking to order bagyard suspension with a simple 2 paddle management as thought I'm better to spend on the bags with a management that suits my buget. Would you sat this is a good way to go???

I had the Airlift V2 kit on my Mk4 Golf when I had that and it was brilliant. It was simple to install and worked like a dream.
Personally, I'd spend the extra and go with a digital management purely for the ease of adjustment, fitting and they're a bit more precise than having to glance at gauges when you're wanting to drop it as you can pre-set your ride heights and at the touch of a button it goes to that position. I'm tempted with it again for the Mk1 when the time comes.

Air on a mk1 is a tough call as for me it depends on use.
I'm going for decent static coilover drop as I'll be more fast road/track.
If it's more of a show car then air is the way.
Then if going air you want digital management really, I have it on my Range Rover sport and its really good.
I'm looking at getting a t5 next and that will have v2 air control. It's more complicated to fit as there are level sensors but it automatic just have three preset settings.

So for those running air, what psi are you running as I'm using about 40 psi and find it comfy but on other sites there saying that's way too low???
