Lowering Springs

[5.0stang_gt]

What is the lowest drop spring that is available on the market that won't rub stock tires? I just want to slam the car as much as possible. Anybody have pictures of their drops. I have looked at the eibach sportline but i want to see if there are any other options. thanks

Honestly you really dont want to lower the car too much.
You can run into alot of problems.

-pinion angle
-bumpsteer
-bad alignment
-and poor handling

I went with the Steeda Sport Springs, and I have noticed quite a bit more bump steer. Only a 1.25" drop...

I think the sportlines will be your best bet . They offer a 1.75 to 2" plus drop which is quite a bit on these cars . I think if you go any lower you will be kicking yourself . I have seen other springs with similiar drops on E-bay . I would be wary of them , I've known a couple people who have bought them and not had good results (car not sitting level side to side) . I had the Pro-kit on 2 of my mustangs and have been very happy .

you can probably trim up a coil or so to get a lower drop on a set of lowering springs (like most do to the back springs) Supposedly Eibachs give one of the lowest drops.
Regardless you'll have to fork out the extra money for C/C plates and an alignment. DONT JUST DO IT if you dont have money for those things. Take it from me, I had to get new front tires and thats a waste of money when they were already new.
