PRINCIPAUX AVANTAGES DES SUSPENSIONS OLEOPNEUMATIQUES NIMBUS
confort amélioré
La combinaison air et huile popularisée par Citroën et plus tard, Mercedes et Rolls Royce, offre un confort de conduite incomparable. La technologie oléopneumatique de Nimbus absorbe les petites imperfections de la route tout comme les pièges en tout-terrain, à haute comme à basse vitesse.
haute-performance
Les suspensions Nimbus offrent une adhérence et une capacité traction exceptionnelles grâce à un rebond ultra-rapide qui vient coller la roue au sol bien plus vite que les suspensions traditionnelles. Ainsi, le véhicule transforme mieux l'énergie en mouvement, améliorant ainsi la motricité, les performances et la sécurité de l'ensemble.
100% adaptables
Vos suspensions sont fabriquées sur mesure pour votre véhicule, et pour l'usage que vous souhaitez en faire. Mais à tout moment, la pression de l’air peut être ajustée, garantissant ainsi le même confort et les mêmes performances, quelle que soit la charge du véhicule et votre style de conduite.
haute sensibilité
Les suspensions Nimbus offrent une courbe de compression progressive avec une sensibilité accrue en début de course, qui vient absorber les petites imperfections du revêtement. C'est ce qui provoque cette sensation de flottement totalement contrôlé avec l'effet dit "Tapis Volant" ou "Nuage".
absence de talonnage
L’air est l'ingrédient secret qui empêche les suspensions de talonner même dans des conditions extrêmes. Là où les amortisseurs conventionnels apportent une réponse quasiment linéraire, les amortisseurs oléopneumatiques vont s'adapter à chaque sollicitation, les plus douces comme les plus violentes, empêchant ainsi tout talonnage.
légèreté
Les suspensions Nimbus sont plus légères que la plupart des systèmes de suspension conventionnels. L’utilisation d’aluminium de très haute qualité et d'autres matériaux venant, entre autres, de l'aérospatiale, nous permet de réduire le poids de nos produits tout en offrant une solidité et une résistance à la corrosion exceptionnelles.
CHAQUE JEU DE SUSPENSIONS EST CONSTRUIT À LA MAIN ET SUR-MESURE POUR VOTRE vehicule
Lorsque vous nous passez commande, nous vous interrogeons sur les spécifications de votre 4x4, les modifications que vous lui avez apporté, vos préférences de conduite et la manière dont vous l'utilisez en général (chemins, raides, etc.).
Sur la base de ces renseignements, notre équipe technique va concevoir un ensemble de 4 combinés suspensions adapté exclusivement à vous et à votre 4x4.
Et quand nous disons "fait méticuleusement à la main", cela se traduit dans les faits.
Nous produisons nous-mêmes plus de 80% des pièces nécessaires à la fabrication des futures suspensions de votre véhicule, le tout dans notre usine près de Saint-Gaudens (31)
real world results,
Driven by Experience.
Every suspension tells a story. From desert dunes to remote trails, Nimbus users put our technology to the test in real conditions. Their stories reflect not just performance gains, but a whole new driving experience, with more comfort, more control, more confidence. Scroll down to hear what they have to say.
“ After discovering Nimbus, I was eager to learn how its suspension system could enhance my Ineos Grenadier.
From my first contact with Pierre-Olivier and Killian, I felt more like part of the Nimbus Team than a customer.
Now, with nearly 10,000 on- and off-road miles, I’m convinced. The stability and ride quality are exceptional, whether on DC’s pothole-ridden streets or the rugged trails of the Blue Ridge Mountains.
I look forward to future innovations and can’t wait to integrate the next Nimbus upgrades! "

“ I can't describe how the car changed completely on the road. It's very soft and smooth. No vibration, nothing. It feels like a Range Rover.
To be honest, it was the best investment ever.
Thanks again for the different experience. It does exactly what you advertise. “

“ With the Nimbus suspension doing its job, the unpaved road seemed almost buttery smooth; we could not believe how quietly the old Land Rover glided over the undulating washboard and maintained stability through the corners.
To me, a badly corrugated road is one of the most severe tests of a loaded overland vehicle’s suspension, and the Nimbus suspension passed with flying colors.
Luisa and I gaped at each other as we glided along with only the worst washboard registering vibration; “That’s incredible,” we thought. Nimbus calls that comfort the ‘flying carpet effect.’ ”

“ Installation carried out last Thursday, I can confirm it's a real treat.
No more apprehension about taking the Defender for a long journey. I no longer recognize my vehicle, which has become so comfortable.
Moreover, Killian and his colleague are very nice, keen to keep their commitment and to serve the customer as well as possible. It's nice to see people who are eager. Keep it up, the future is ahead of you. "

“ I have to say the drive quality is so much better! It drives like a brand new car with modern suspension and without the judders and wobbles that used to characterize the old ride!
Many thanks for your outstanding customer service. I really appreciate.
Do let me know if you invent anything else and I will be sure to buy! “

“ The past 5,000 kilometers have been a vastly different driving experience.
We got to drive more confidently, and it was way more comfortable than the 200.000 kilometers before that.
We threw everything Africa has to offer at these shocks, and they held up well.
They outperformed our expectations by a long shot. ”

“ When the 4x4 was driving, we were right behind it. Personally, I was able to witness the effectiveness of Nimbus suspensions!
I was blown away by its road handling when we had to make 90-degree turns. The vehicle didn’t slow down or barely did, and its trajectory remained unchanged, with no loss of grip.
Meanwhile, I had to slow down, taking a wider angle to turn, or I had to maintain my speed and drift through the turn to minimize speed loss.
The same happened for a level 3 danger bump while crossing the track. The 4x4 didn’t slow down, it took a jump, and the landing wasn’t harsh. It looked like it landed on air cushions with no deviation in trajectory.
Personally, I encourage everyone to try them. It’s mind-blowing!
A huge thank you to Nimbus Suspensions. "

“ Wow! I didn’t know an 80 could be this plush and compliant. Creeping in on 100 series territory.
Also, I couldn’t help but notice the insane aerospace build quality while installing the Nimbus suspensions. “
Bryce Drobny

“ Honestly, these suspensions are top-notch!
We used them to scout a racecourse in Portugal, driving a stock Grenadier with five people on board, chatting calmly the whole time.
Result: we completed the loop in 15 minutes, faster than some cars during the actual race!
We handled jumps without the slightest issue and went over bumps with impressive comfort.
Truth be told, I don’t think I’ve even come close to finding the limits of the Nimbus yet.
And despite doing about ten laps with a vehicle weighing nearly 3 tons, there wasn’t the slightest hint of overheating. ”
Sylvain "Sven" Venthenat

“ I got the Land Cruiser back this afternoon and took it for a one-hour drive, and I’d describe it as an entirely modern SUV.
The clattering at the back has disappeared completely and it is now as smooth and silent as the front. The ride is soft and nice, you literally don’t feel like you’re in a car designed almost 30 years ago.
Thanks so much, Killian, for your proactive support and assistance. Your client service and attention to detail were exceptional, at a level I’ve never experienced before. "
Tyler Brandsma

“ Not sure what to say other than I love driving my Land Cruiser even more now!
It’s more comfortable than ever, but what I truly appreciate is how much more control and confidence I feel on dirt trails. I’m only 5,000 km in, but our recent trip to Morocco was the best one yet.
And also a huge thank you to your team. You’ve been incredibly patient and kind throughout the process. “
Antoine Amilhat

“ Nimbus is expanding its range of 4x4 suspension systems, particularly for the Hilux and Land Cruiser 150 Series and 200 Series.
They lent me their Land Cruiser 100 Series equipped with Nimbus, and I can guarantee: it’s incredibly comfortable!
From now on, every 4x4 I restore will be fitted with Nimbus.
Right now, they have my Land Cruiser 200 for development, and I can't wait to get it back! ”
Gayan aka The French Cruiser

“ After completing the Dakar with our Toyota, I can confidently say that the Nimbus shocks exceeded our expectations.
Whether at high or low speeds, the performance was outstanding. Our leaf springs were quite stiff, so we didn’t get all the comfort we had hoped for, but aside from that, the shocks performed flawlessly.
What’s even more impressive is that we ran a single-shock setup while most others relied on dual shocks, and we had zero issues.
The car could take on another Dakar without even touching the shocks. In fact, I believe the shocks played a key role in ensuring we never got stuck in the sand.
All in all, an incredible performance and a setup we fully trust. "
William Fossat
Toyota Land Cruiser
Dakar Rallye 2025
“ The Grenadier is super smooth. Any little road chatter or bumps are eliminated.
It’s soft at the very top of the stroke, making it very comfortable, but gets stiff quickly over normal road bumps and going into corners, making it way more drivable than stock.
The folks at Nimbus have been absolutely awesome to work with, answered every question I have, and even hand-delivered my shocks.
Could not have had a better experience with them. “
Justin Robert
Ineos Grenadier

“ Just spent half a day out testing the Nimbus and the only way to describe them is 'F***ing unbelievable!'
I air down to 25 psi and the car felt like a trophy truck. ”
Rohan Cooray

“ I have done a lot with my Defender, but the most significant and transformative one, has been the Nimbus Suspension.
It has completely transformed how it handles and feels.
Long trips are never an issue and it has become my preferred daily driver. Fantastic on roads, and superior off-road.
How its possible, is truly beyond and above my imagination, but it is. "
Kasper M. de Thurah, a.k.a. @iamnordic
Land Rover Defender

“ Everything went perfectly on the return journey, with exceptional behavior from the Defender.
We feel much more secure in terms of road handling.
And the comfort is incredible; it's a pleasure to get out of your 4x4 without having numb legs and back pain.
We're going to be able to fully enjoy it now.Many thanks to Nimbus and its team.
Best wishes and see you soon for other adventures. Adishatz! ”
