Just wanted to post the outcome; went with 5000# supersprings and 16 x 7 OE steel wheels. The Supersprings are great. Actual install time was more like 2 hrs. total. I don't have a shop to work in and installed them on a cold New England day in my driveway a few weeks ago. Finally got to load up and do a proper test drive. The SS appear to have softened the unladed ride (perhaps because I am not on the airbags any longer) and have really improved the handling when loaded; much less lean in the corners and sway/bounce almost non-existent. Handling is much more confident. Took a quick trip this weekend, had minimal psi in the bags. Maybe I'll play around with that next trip and see if I can make any further improvements. With just the SS I don't feel that I really need the bags any more...but they are still on there so I'll play with them and see what happens.
