Another update:

I finally got the front end aligned and there were no issues with castor/camber adjustment. Im happy that my 2" drop didnt cost as much as others have forked out.

Alignment costs about $65-75 in the Bay Area.

I really do suggest doing the install yourself, its quite simple really. Once I had the right instructions and tools we got the whole thing done in about 2-3 hours last Wednesday.

You need flat ground, 2 Jack Stands, 1 Lift, 1 Coil Spring Compressor, Socket Wrenches and a Crowbar. The instructions in the first post did the trick and really beats spending $400+ to get someone else to do it.

I love the Eibach Sport Line myself

I just installed the Sport Line Eibach springs on my 05 GT. Simply SWEET. I have had the Sport Line on other Mustangs in the past and this combination is better than any previous Sport Lines in the past. I was expecting a rougher ride than the stock suspension, but that was not the case. The ride and the handling enhancements are far greater that I would believe. And the look and stance of the car is BAD. Eibach did a wonderful job. No problem with alignment. I have a few more mods and I will post a picture.

I havent noticed any problems with steering yet, the car drives straight unless there is a crown in the road.

Can someone actually measure the clearance of their stock height 05 GT at the center inside of the front and rear wheels so I can compare them with my dropped measurements? I want to know if Eibach's listed drop is correct or not.

anyone have any idea what the spring rates are. i have no clue what the rep is with mustangs, but in the Focus community most people consider the Sportlines to be too soft a spring.

also, here's a good site to help with your wheel/tire questions:
