you mean like air ride suspension? because air bag suspension replaces your stock shocks...

to my knowledge, the only type of suspension that you can ADD a airbag for support, is leaf spring (truck rearend and classic cars are the only ones that even use leaf springs). theres just not enough room in the suspension to add anything liek that. not to mention that these cars arnt known for their pull/hauling abilitys, so even IF you could, i doubt you could find someone that makes it.

I would like to know what you are putting in the back that you would need extra support for
