I have H&R super sports on my cobra, they lowered it a little below 2". I would recommend them but you will have be careful driving over bumps now.

H&R super sport springs or ebaich sportlines

The answer would be (from a respectable manufacturer) Ford Racing C-Springs. Depending on the year, it's about 1"-1 1/4" front and 7/8" - 1" in the back
these are mine w/ my shocks:

C Springs are nice but they will definetly not give you the lowest drop.

Go with H&R Supersport springs they will give you the lowest comfortable drop, its amazing how close my car comes to plowing certain objects like, parking blocks, curbs, etc etc but it never ever hits. Im talking less than 1/4 inch clearance sometimes. They definetly did their research before making these springs. Get em.

eibach sportlines......i think i have one of the baddest stances around imo...go with the sport lines or ss springs

H&R Supersports. Mine dropped my car 1-3/4" in the front and 1-1/5" in the rear BUT that is with new urethane isolators so with stock it would have been a 1/4" more.

Best springs by far.

lowest drop, you want to go with Intrax springs. Not the best quality of a ride, but you wanted lowest drop

 

[TrueBlue03]

yea, there are springs lower than super sports and sportlines. intrax or something like Tein makes springs that lower over 2"

but anything that low and you're pretty much screwed like i am. i have over a 2" drop in front (no isolators) and with catback and x pipe, i cant even clear pine cones in the road when i straddle them.

H&R vert springs SLAM the front of the car. I ended up pulling my front springs and replacing them with Roushs. The H&R vert springs drop a good chunk more than the coupe springs (they even say that on their website).

I wouldn't lower the car more than 2". It messes up the suspension geometry and isn't easily corrected.

I have Sportline with isorater removed. 2.25" drop.
looks good, but too low.

My car being not daily driver, i can deal with it. but if its DD, I'd replaced it with FRPP C loong time ago

 

[XxMustang281xX]

wow, never noticed you had that big of a drop..looks awesome btw..

my car is a 97 im not sure how low it actually dropped my car but i have intrax springs and its pretty low.

If i were to buy another set i would go with h&r supersports.

my fault i though the question was regarding the "smallest" drop as in the lowest amount of difference lol
