I use Roush springs over Tokico D-Specs. No complaints here. Good ride and excellent handling but still plenty of clearance for speed humps.

FRPP K springs, made by Eibach, but cheaper, and they are a Ford part that if installed at a dealer, they are covered under warranty now...

How much do the FRPP springs lower the car? Are they the progressive rate springs?

I use Steeda Comp springs lowering the car 1" in front 1'4 in rear. The ride is firm but not harsh even through the city with numerous potholes and other road defects.

Click to expand...

yes they are progessive, and the lowered ours at least 1.5" all the way around, maybe a hair more.

I second the motion on the Steeda Competition springs....outstanding handling and not harsh at all....as a matter of fact they are significantly less harsh than the Eibach pro-kit that I had on my 04 cobra.
