Trying to decide which lowering springs to get and I'm looking for something that lowers 1.5-1.75" up front and slightly less in back. Of course we all know that when the spring manufacturers tell you how much their springs lower it's not always accurate. I basically want no wheel gap in front and very little in back.

I'm leaning towords the FMS C springs, H&R Super Sport or Race, and the Steeda springs.... also curious about the MM and Stangsuspension.com brand springs if anyone has any experience with them.

They're going on my '90 GT and I'm looking for something with a sporty/firm but not harsh ride.

If anyone has the above springs on a '87-'93 hatch, would you post pics and state your tire size, and what kind of isolators you're running front & rear (i.e. original, poly, none).

I have H&R Sport springs. I also have adjustable rear control arms. I raised the rear up a bit because it sat too low. The front sits fine as is.
