We need to replace the original air bags on our 1975 Eleganza II. We are running with Firestone 9.50R x 16.50 LT tires at 66 lbs air pressure and the tire diameter is 31 inches. For those who run with the larger tires; what air bag setup do you recommend?

Thanks for the suggestion Harry! We have always run with the Firestone 9.50; they give us a smooth ride and enhance the appearance of our GMC. There are some interesting options in the GMC community for upgrading the air bag system; we have opted for the Alex Ferrara upgrade as it performs similar to OEM and there is no clearance issue with our larger sized tires.
