I installed some Tien s tech springs on my car, drops the front 2.2 and 1.5 in the front. Im running 18x9.5 inch rims that have the 94-04 mustang offset so the stick out a little further.well i recently changed the tires to 285/40/18 in the rear and 275/40/18 in the front. they used to be 245/40/18 front and back. with the new tire setup i have noticed the drivers side rear tire sticks out half an inch further from the fender than the other side. anyone else run into this problem lowering their car?my coworkers think its the trac bar but i cant find any adjustable trac bars. any help would be appreciated.

Its called a panhard bar, just go to your favorite vendor and you should be able to find one. Here is one:
Steeda Adjustable Panhard Bar and Bar Brace - '05-'09 Ford Mustang
You need the adjustable one.

Get a BMR adjustable panhard bar, like mentioned above, and it'll allow you to adjust the rear axle to center.

x3 panhard bar... adjustable one.
... I hope you installed the adjustable camber bolts.
Otherwise the inside of your front tires will be down to the steel bands in no time.

Not really, unless you're running Sportlines you can get it within factory specs. Granted that it's not perfect, it's not going to ruin the tires. Slotting the struts is a much better way to get unlimited camber essentially. Most alignment shops know how to do this.

The 2005 Mustangs need the strut mounts replaced when you lower it. Order the GT500 strut mounts when you do. They are something to the tune of 25% stiffer than the OEM GT ones.

The forum would be dead if they didn't post the same ole' questions over and over.
:SNSign:Since we are sort of on the suspension topic.
My springs came with a plasticy rubber like tube on the bottom of each front spring, I would assume they are for the insulator to reduce noise.
The stock springs, had a much thicker, rubberier, like tube. Should I have reused the stock insulators over the ones provided by Eibach?
The instructions say to reuse all stock materials..but I felt that wasnt necesarry?

+1 We wouldn't have anything to talk about since every week someone aks about the best CAI/tune, what oil to run, what gears to get, which FI is the best, which exhaust sounds better, and what wheels and tires to get. Thats just the ones off the top of my head. I'm sure most people would agree.

I needed camber bolts with my prokit
I didn't with my Steeda Sport Spring which is the same drop.

That is probably true. I retract my previous statment. Please continue with the same old questions that have been asked and answered a hundred times.
