I am looking to finish up my suspension project in the next couple of weeks.

So far I have installed:
MM full length subframe connectors
MM Strut tower brace

Have and waiting to install:
EBC Sport rotors & Green stuff pads
Hotchkis caster camber plates

The crisis is springs. I need to order a spring/strut & shock package, and it seems that every day I get up I have decided on a different setup.
Before you guys throw a suggestion my way, this car will never see the track. It will not see autoX or dragstrip duty. Just the twisty mountain roads of Tennessee

Right now I am leaning towards H&R Race springs (Recommended by Maximum Motorsports) The H&R Supersports will give it a lower stance in the rear For the Shocks and Struts, I was thinking Bilsteins or Tokico Illumina's.

Is anyone running these? If so please let me know your experiance with them... Or I may be overlooking a different combo. I don't want the slammed look, just to get rid of the F150 stance. I am interested in mainly ride quality and performance. This project is a performance upgrade, but being 43 years old my tolerance for a log truck ride quality is pretty low. Plus we sometimes take the car on weekend trips.

Sorry for the long question, but I am stuck. And you guys have always gave it to me straight when I asked.

BTW it is a convertible

Thanks in advance.

get the H&R's from what i have heard and read, wish i had gotten them...... Do get the front end down a hair lower than the back get the steeda x2 balljoints.......they will actually lower the front around 1/2-3/4" thereself..... Plus give you better suspension geometry.......

that way you will have it lower in the front than the rear.....lol

good luck
