Pros: If done right it can increase load capacity and make the vehicle more stable. Can also make for a softer ride. Can give the vehicle a nice looking low agressive stance.
Cons: Expensive to do correctly, adds another item to have problems with.

these are a few of the companies that offer air ride kits or parts, there are probably hundreds of others I'm forgetting.
I had air ride on a previous truck, it worked great until I blew an air line and bag in the middle of nowhere. Three hours under the back of the truck in 105deg heat sucked. After that experience I wouldnt do straight air bags again. I'd use lowering springs and run air assist bags. That way if a bag fails I can limp home sitting on the springs.
