Lowered 1" front, 1 1/4 back via the springs in the sig. 18" fans. Pic is a bit big, so I kept it as a URL:

P.S. Sorry for the crappy pic. Taken from a cameraphone.

It does not appear the tire diameter was preserved. My first impression was 'too small.' Are the tires the right height?

Dude, nice! I really like the look of the stock fan-blades once the car is dropped. Really sharp. Also looks great with the rag-top.

You should post a pic with the top down and that might finally convince me to go buy another Stang...a convertible.

With a nice camera, some tint and some tire dressing that'd be one sick vert Looks great lowered.

Thanks for all the great comments. I am going to take some pics in the next few days with my 7MP digital camera with the top down, especially since I just put a fresh coat of wax and wheel shine on it.

295/35/18 out back and 265/35/18 up front

18x10's out back and 18x9's up front.

So a 26 inch tire out back and a 25.3 inch tire up front.
