unstable driving when lowered???

[phatcadi63]

So I hope I can find a little help here. I have a 63 Cadi on bags. Problem is that I have the alignment set when the car is riding at 80psi and it get kinda squirrley when I brake. It doesnt do it when its raised a bit at say 85-90psi. only when its real low. Id like to drive it higher, but it eats the tires up. So the question is, if the bags have a low amount a pressure does it affect the handling (especially when breaking)? Thanks for your help guys

Ride height on that Shockwave should be about mid travel. You have about 5" of wheel travel, ride height would be about 3" from fully deflated. I am guessing a little over 100psi on that car. Driving it too low will give a soft spring rate and could dive quite a bit under braking. I would have it realigned at the higher pressure.
