In going through numerous catalogs what would be the best spring setup along with shocks and struts for a 99 GT 'vert?

I was thinking along the lines of a budget minded setup, along with some higher quality springs like MM or Steeda, but I would be open to some budget springs like FRPP's progressive ones.....

Is there a difference between GT springs and V6's? I see that in most catalogs say V6 coupe and vert and then just GT, so will all springs for GT's also work on 'vert GT's like mine????

Instead of LT's and DD rims in the back with 315's I want to go with suspension first before anything else.

For budget'd, might as well go with StangSuspension's set of springs. I've never tried them...but they look like they lower quite a bit.

Also, how much are you wanting to lower? I am personally looking for around 2" in front and 1.5" in back, and this is the setup I'm going with:

H&R Super Sports for 94-04 Convertible, 1.9" drop in front, 1.6" drop in rear - http://www.stangsuspension.com/store/comersus_viewitem.asp?idproduct=243
Bilstein Strut/Shock Package for 94-04 - http://www.stangsuspension.com/store/comersus_viewitem.asp?idproduct=842

...in addition to...
MM Standard Non-Adjustable Lower Control Arms
MM 4-Bolt Caster/Camber Plates for 94-04 - http://www.stangsuspension.com/store/comersus_viewitem.asp?idproduct=164

It's gonna run me a pretty penny though. $1181.01 before discount/shipping. Too bad I bought my Saleen spoiler yesterday.

P.S. PartShopper won't be beat on any products that they carry.
