Hey guys I'm trying to decide what springs I want with my ride. If you have Ford C spings, Eibach prokit springs, or H&R sport springs (NOT SS) please post pictures! Share your experiences as well! Thanks.

umm.. honestly, u wolnt notice much of a diff between the ss's and the pro kit and the sports. its more about comfort and handling, as i have found out by recently switching to the pro kit after having ss. the car looks almost identical in ride height. if i didnt know i switched, i wouldnt be able to tell

dude thats still not as bad as having the rear of your car lowered a full inch more than the front as with the tendancy of eibachs sagging. (sportlines did not lower front enough, then lowered the rear 3 FULL inches.

i do NOT recommend eibachs at all. another set of springs i'd recommend though, are the steeda sports. about the same drop as pro kits and the h&r sports advertise.

From what I hear the Eibach Sportlines had problems, not the pro kit. Steeda springs advertise a 1 1/4 inch drop, and they're WAY expensive. I don't think I want the H&R sports because they advertise more than a 1.5" drop.

Any more C spring pictures?

Here's mine before and after "C" Springs. I didn't cut any coils. I like the "rake" that the slightly higher rear gives. Front dropped about 2" and rear about 1.25-1.5". There's another "before" pic in my Stangnet Garage.

I really dont think you would go wrong with any of those springs.

And the eibach pro kit is not the one with the problems actually I had eibach pro kit on my probe gt and they were great kinda stiff but not too bad. The sportlines are the ones that suck they sag like crazy.

agreed. dont go eibach sportlines. my front doesnt sit low enough and my back is slightly sagged on one side.

a friend as the h & r's on his 98 and the car sits perfect. rides very decent as well.

i know that sportlines are the ones with the most problems, BUT more and more people are complaining about their prokits and how the rear sits lower. just check out some pics of pro kit lowered cars. over half of them are all lowered more in the rear. just pointing that out so more people are aware.i dont know. im a perfectionist

my rears almost have no difference with my pro kit as opposed to my H&R Super Sport springs i had a while ago. I guess it may have something to do with my heavier convertible. but i do like the rear drop rate and now, i don't usually scrape on speedbumps

Did you need CC plates?

Any one heard about the Ford F springs? They're dirt cheap and drop 1.5" all the way around....
