Thanks for the inspiration to swap my suspension. I've been putting it off since I bought the vehicle 3 years ago. Felt bad to scrap a perfectly good air suspension, but at 120k miles it was about time for a refresh. Was on the fence with getting the bc coilovers or just getting a spring /shock combo. Glad I went with the bilsteins. Install it and forget it. No need to make adjustments

No problem. Mine was at 106k miles yet one of the front mounts was cracked. I know the difference probably wouldn't as big when compared to brand new OEM suspension but I simply believe in good Bilstein setup with either stock or some other springs over air suspension.
