Super Springs versus Air Bags

Super Springs versus Air Bags? Let me know which of these two items, in your opinion, would be my best choice for load support to achieve as close to factory ride height as possible when hooked up?

The airbags will allow you to adjust your ride height by changing the air pressure. I’m not familiar with super springs, but assume they are a heavier version of a stock leaf spring (?) I’m a big fan of air springs, the big truck and trailer industry has used them for close to 50 yrs..... they work.

On two different trucks I have had two different brands of air bags and liked them both. Liked the Firestones on the Ram 2500 and LOVE the Air Lifts on the F350. Like you, I don't really need them but enjoy the improved ride.

I like the air bags, have not heard about Super springs. Air bags let you add lift when needed and go back to stock when not needed.

I had Super Springs on a 1/2 ton when was pulling TT. They don't change the ride empty and help when heavy load is placed on rear. I liked them but if was to do it again would go with air bags.
