RE: Stance?
EDIT: I see you just added a choice for REAR TOO HIGH (it sits nicely in the front, IMO)
Next to wheels and tires, a car having the proper STANCE is the most important aesthetic, IMO. I like it when classic Stangs have a slight rake to them. My '66 sits low in the front and appears higherin the back. That appearance is achieved with taller rear tires (225/70R14) on '70 5-slot Mach Irims with 205/70R14's on matching rims in the front. I also added two more leaves per side in the back to "correct" the factory rear-end squat.

RE: Stance?
I thought that the back was a little high for the first 5 or 10 min, but it grew on me quickly... 
With the tire/wheel selection we are running the rear height really can't go any lower,, Life is full of compromise.
1970s stance FTW!!

Personally I think I would lower the rear just a bit but if you like it, thats all that matters.
I had someone tell me that my front was too high, what do you think???

RE: Stance?
I have been following the posts about your ride height, personally, I like the front of your car, if you were to raise the back a couple of inches I would like it even better.... (damn that is a pretty car!!)
IMO, the extremely low stance looks great, but it is becoming a little passé ...maybe a littletoo common.
Also, the 66 rides and drives great like it is, and it hooks up like no ones bussiness...
