I am going to go with some c springs from gefracing.com, and i would like to see some cars lowered with them. Im planning to leave the isolators out too, how is the ride quality?

thanks

i had the C-springs at one time and i hated them, switched to the bullitt springs...they ride so much better........C-springs will beat you to death .......and i dont want anybody to ask me about what struts and shocks i was using......i switched my stock ones out for the tokico struts and shocks and it was not any better......who cares about that low in the weeds look when somebody rides with you and they ask " whats wrong with your car......why does it ride so bad" .....even worse is when your 195000 mile 86 mazda pick-up truck that you use for your beater rides better than the mustang...
here is a picture of mine when i had the C-springs.....

I bought the Bullitt suspension from GEF and I wasn't happen with the drop I had with the Bullitt springs. That is why I switched them out with the "C" springs. I don't think it rides bad at all. My wife even enjoys riding in my car. Your best bet would to be to ride in someones car who has the "C" springs and see how you like it.

Nope...but I did cut 3/4 coil off the rear! Also, what struts and shocks are recommended for the C springs?

I had c springs for 90K miles, and they worked great for me. Ride was not bad at all.

I think the C-springs look good but ride quality sucks, you need to find someone with the C-springs and go for a ride and see for your self here is the picture i tried to post earlier of my car with the C-springs.....

Lots of good looking cars in this thread!

Santa is bringing me C springs for Christmas. I just wish he'd bring some Tokicos too.

what kind of times are you pulling with those 18's???

wheels look very nice but i'm scared of losing performance over bigger size rims.
btw, where'd you get them from?
