I finally decided to go with another wheel and not wait 4-5 weeks for a backordered model. These are Diamo DI25 black. Front is a 20x8.5 w/BFG KDW NT's 255/35/20 and the back wheels are 20x10 w/BFG KDW NT's 285/30/20. The car isn't lowered yet. I'm leaning toward H&R springs since they have the least amount of drop. I have an issue with a severly steep driveway.

Looks great, personally I don't think you need a drop anytime soon. The tint looks real nice too. I am jealous.

Thanks. Who here thinks I should drop it? If the majority says no to a drop, then I will spend my money on other mods. I really value opinions. Tint is the first thing I did to this car. I live in Texas, so it's a must have for sure.

the one thing all mustangs need is lowering springs...sorry, but it is the first mod that should be done...ours was...they just sit too high from the factory, but to each his own...

A one inch drop would look nice, not any lower.
Love that tungsten grey!

I agree with Orange

no more than 1" IMO. Go H&R if you do. Very little sacrifice in comfort.

I have to deal with the driveay, also. You could get the Roush rears. They sell them separately. Then you've leveled out without dragging the front on your driveway.

Mustang's are 4x4's from the factory. Drop it.

I have Roush springs on mine and can still drive the car forwards up onto a set of ramps.

I think it looks great. If you go with the 20" wheels and the right size tires, I don't see a reason to drop the 05+. They are not NEARLY as bad as the 94-04 cars. I would rather it ride a inch higher than have to repaint/replace the front fascia.

I think the H&R Sport springs would put you right where you want and compliment this setup real nice.

we are running the FRPP "K" springs on ours, and i can't get my floor jack under it unless i pull the wheels onto a 2x10 piece of wood and do it that way, but i don't care, it looks SOOOOOOO much better lowered...

this is exactly what my Dad always said about any car, God Rest His Soul...i kind of miss hearing those words, even though i always lowered my cars anyway...
