    2000 GT Mustang - Which Bullitt wheels look best?

    Hi folks, I lowered my mustang using HR Race Springs. The height dropped about 1 1/4 inch front and back without sacraficing ride quality. I was very happy with the handling.. I currently have a set of 17 inch wheels with 245/45's. I am considering getting a set of American Muscles Stagerred...

    The bottom line is if you want to get rid of the wheel gap by running springs that lower your mustang much more than 1.5 inches you will end up with crappy ride quality. The mustang suspension travel does not permit dropping that low without compromising handling and ride quality. I'm glad I...

    If you lowered a 99 or 01 Cobra with H&R springs, Read This (pic)

    I have a 2000 gt and am just ready to lower mine. I'm just waiting on the parts... I went for the HR sports, cc plates, subframe connectors, bilsteins and am contemplating going with the LCA's since I will have everything taken a part, I thought it would be the best time to drop those in...

    No, I made up my mind... I am going to draw the line and just get ... hr sport springs mm cc plates subframe connectors bilstein hd shocks I will then save my money so I can dial in my drop to a new set of wheels to close out the majority of the remaining gap so I can meet my target of 1/2 to...

    Here is another thought :scratch: If I replaced the LCA's I would also want to replace the UCA's at the same time. After thinking about it , and just because it would be the best time to replace upper and lower control arms while replacing the rear springs I could just wait on the panhard bar...

    You are absolutely correct, ciphering through recommendations and doing research is an important part when you are tackling something new. I personally don't have much experience in suspensions, this is why I am here. From what I read about Lower Control Arms is that the primary benefit is...

    I was advised that I would get more benefit with the panhard bar then with the LCA. You have to make a decision based on your needs which improvements will benefit you the most for the dollars that you have to invest. I figure that at this point I have improved my suspension tremendously...

    Need Some Lowering Help

    Ideally I want to achieve like a 1/2 inch to 1 inch gap between the top of my tire and top of my fenders. This is why I was leaning toward a kit that would give me the most drop. That is why I was looking at the Eibach Sportlines since they provide a 2 inch drop in front and rear. With...

    Thanks 01GT eibach for your comments.. Like you say, I get a dozen people telling me go with this that and the other and another dozen telling me not to. Some say go Eibock sportlines, others say not to cause they sag or don't ride as well as other springs such as HR Sportlines. So far...

    Thanks for your recommendation, I may just go with the HR SS springs. It may just be the happy medium that would be most appropriate as you say. As for the Bilstein shock/strut combination is there a certain p/n or model that you would recommend? Don't they have several different models...

    Thanks for your opinion. Choices choices and more choices... :shrug: Anyone out there who has the sportlines have any comments? I was considering the HR SS Springs, but kind of wanted to drop a bit lower since again my car has a 4 inch gap in both front and back that makes my car look like a...
