Air bags tend to make sway worse, and in particular a problem if a single hose is run to fill them both at the same time. Air bags are to level a vehicle as when needing to mate to a 5th wheel trailer.
Far less problems when overload springs are added along with better shocks (i.e. dampeners). Lots of posts by people having problems with air bags but I have not come across any from people using Supersprings or similar overload devices on their trucks.
