    I was about to link to the Arnott ( not the department store ) air bag suspension available at micksgarage but the site isn't showing them at the moment. I will get it fixed and hopefully send you a link.

    Current price is €233 for a single airbag but there is a forum discount code for 10% off.

    You can't really look at it like that.

    Tyres are only a big rubber balloon but there is a technology behind them. You aren't just paying for the material.

    I thought it was just airlines and a valve in them.
    No technology in the airspring / airbags on the trucks...
