Yeah, I over looked the P part of the thread. Though even still I thought FRPP did have some springs that were essentially rebadged Steeda's. I could very well be wrong but just something I recalled from few years back.

No problem.

Just wanted to clarify the differences.

Unless Ford has changed, Eibach makes the springs for Ford. Now who makes them for Steeda, SteedaBrandon would have to say.

I just installed the P springs last week and the drop was not significant, ~.5 front and ~1.25 rear. The car looks level and no more 4x4 look. With the d specs I was able to adjust for the increased stiffness so the daily ride was not affected too much. I autocross on the 23rd of this month so we'll see how much of an improvement they are then.

P's on mine. Mayo's killer stance helped me make the decision.

That's odd that yours dropped .5/1.25 since they "say" 1".

I found some lightly used ones here on MF that I'll probably pick up. If I want more later on, I can always switch to K's.

I'm not interested in a big drop, just a little to close up the wheel gap and to negate the lift I got when I switched from 27.1" tires to 27.7".

I thought so too but i'm ok with it. I didn't want it too low in the front anyway.

Hypercoil makes the rear springs and I'm sure they make the front springs for Steeda. My Steeda Sport rear springs are actually 2.5" Hypercoil coilover springs with 175 lbs/in rate. Fine by me! Hypercoil makes a good set of springs!
