Default Ridetech Shockwaves

Been researching bagging my truck. I've pretty much decided on ridetech products. 4 link for the rear, E3 system for air management, and shockwaves for the front. My question being is has anyone had any dealings with the shockwaves? They seem legit but want some real world opinions about them or would it be better to put regular bags upfront?

one of my buddies had them on his wifes altama a few years ago..they seem legit but they are expensive. 1800 dollars from ridetech. other than that, that's as far as my experience goes.

I don't have any real world experience with them, but the Pro-Touring guys swear by their products. They run them on the 1st/2nd gen Camaros, Chevelles, Novas, Mustangs, etc. I frequent the forums a lot & I haven't seen any negative feedback on the products. Post pics if you go this route.

I'm in the middle of actually researching whether I want to go the Shockwave route or the control arms/bag route.

shockwave are more of a performance air strut then a lowering one.
