Hey, I currently have FRPP C springs on my 2003 GT mustang. I love the ride height but the ride is a little rough. I am planning on getting Bilstein Struts and Shocks and MM Caster Camber plates soon. I know the H&R are stiffer and progressive vs. the FRPP springs. I was wondering if anyone can put thier 2cents in if they have experience with these springs and which ones would work better for street use and maybe a supercharger one day?

well the C-Springs a a progressive design too, but HR will drop a lil more. Not sure as to the ride quality, but the shocks should make the suspension even stiffer which might be worse in a comfort sence

You either get 2 options,

1: you have stiff springs and love them

2: you go back to stock and stay soft and don't compalin about it.

You can always get adjustable dampers but you'll won't get what you want out of it. As far as the H&R race springs, those are one of the stiffest springs out there, the higher the number, the stiffer they are.



You should decide what you want out of your car AND what you will be comfortable with first

I ran C springs on my last mustang and they were such a good value I put them on my newer mustang. The C springs are FIXED at 650lbs in the front, but the B springs are progressive, so if you want a smoother ride go progressive.

I didnt swap out my struts and shocks when I did the springs, so my ride quality is starting to suffer.
