I went with the H&R Super Sports and have been so happy with the stance. It's beautiful. I added the M&M Caster / Camber kit with it because the SS is such a drop. I looked at tons of pics before I decided though. I got a couple pics of the H&R drop in this post...

H&R SS springs lower the car a hell of a lot more the the Pro Kit. You need to decide how low you want the car.

I love my H&R SS springs. The handling is good, the drop looks great, and the ride isn't too harsh. The only downside is that my Catalytic Prochamber scrapes often on speed bumps, and irregularities in the road. Because of this, my cats are damaged and no longer function properly. Despite this, I would still buy these springs if I didn't already have them.

Anyone know about Kenny Brown springs? My car has MM coilovers, but the seller gave me the KB springs and upper control arms when I bought the car.

I have had several kinds on my Mustangs and here is what I have learned.

Steeda Sports: Same as H&R Sports. They handle great and provide an excellent stance. They are a bit harsh but when added to Bilstien shocks and struts they are livanle. They do drop her down so look out for stuff in the road.

Eibach Sportline: They suck. They drop the car down low but they are too firm and offer very little controll.

Eibach Pros: Best riding spring I ever had. They offer much better controll over stock. Down side is they dont drop the car down very much.

Vogland: I think they are a lower rate H&R. They have a great drop and ride nice but they need a firm dampner like a Bilstien or Koni Yellow.

Tokico: Pretty crappy all around.

Do you say that in reference to their springs or shocks/struts? I've got a friend that's looking to get rid of his Bullitt springs, and I was thinking of going with the Bullitt springs + Tokico blues. Is that not a good idea?

The Tokico blue struts/shocks are about the best you can get for the cheaper dampners. Way better then Gabriel, Monroe or KYB. I have had them on several cars and never had an issue. Even had them on my last Mark VIII and they rode pretty well.

Its their springs that suck. I dont know who makes them for Tokico but they are some crappy metal.
