Default Firestone or Air Lift airbags

Looking to get an airbag kit so I dont sag anymore when hauling/towing. Anyone have a preference between the firestone or airlift? Hammer and I were talking about them and he says Air lift. Opinions?

they are rubber bags with air in them. if you don't have a lifted truck, then either set will do you. Hell you're talking about a $200 purchase here, it's not rocket science... LOL...
