Default Lowering my stang...help

Alright ladies and gents. first off what is the difference in the front and back suspension stock. right now my stang is stock and i want to lower it. but i already have the CDC classic chin spoiler and feel like the front is lowered pretty good. (got kind of a steep driveway) but if anything id rather just lower the back to make the height even, im pretty sure the stock suspension has the rear just a lil bit higher up. anyone know the height difference and if i could just buy rear springs to lower the rear. if not anyone know any springs that will lower the front just a lil and lower the rear mostly.... comments appriecated

the Steeda Ultra Light's are a great choice is not extreme but gives you a nice stand

a typical recommendation is to install the rousch rear springs if you only aim to lower the back - from what's regularly reported here, those with the r springs have good things to say. bear in mind, however, when you swap out the stock springs but leave the stock dampeners, ride quality does suffer to varying extents.

If you lower the rear, be sure to get LCA relocation brackets so you can correct your pinion angle. I would also recommend getting a set of D-spec shocks as well.
