Firestones are blue, so that's what I'd have liked,
but when I did some reading on reviews the (unscientific) consensus was that lots of people had experience with firestone bags developing cracks in cold weather, or generally leaking (maybe that was the push to connect airlines?), and ended up switching to airlift. Lifetime warranty, too, as you say.
I did amazon's free 2 day shipping. No one local had them. NAPA could get them in 5 days for $135! :-O I like the guys at my local napa, and they're competitive on anything they stock, but I've never been able to special order from them.
So the airlift comes with normal schrader valve stems? awesome.
I'll putting them in on Tuesday.
With at least 1000# in the car, and 900 miles to travel, I think I'll appreciate them. Just the 10 miles back from work with all my tools, and I already noticed the poorer handling with the rear squatted down; and I'll be taking all my tools + 200-300# more.
