firstone airbags are good. they increase your payload by about 1000-5000 lbs and have like a 5 year warrenty or even a lifetime warenty. i plan to get some for my truck when i can aford it for the front and back. which iwold be about $125 per tire

the air bags that aprice is refering to are air bag helper springs. They are a small air bag that is mounted on top of the leaf spring. When you need extra payload capacity you air up the air spring with the on board air compressor to the desired psi. When you want to return back to your original sring rate you just release the air out of the spring. They work very well.:rollin
