Which lowering springs to use?
Hey guys, haven't been on here in forever. But im contemplating on lowering my stang. I already know im getting a BMR panhard bar and caster-camber plates. Going to have to use stock struts and shocks for a while though. Just not sure which drop I want. It will be one of these 2 Eibach spring kits. The first one is a 1" front and 1.5"rear. The second one is about 1.5" front and 2" rear. This car is my daily driver right now and I don't have any big bumps to worry about. Any input would be appreciated. Thanks.

First - I like those wheels - what are they?
Second - I just put the SR springs on my '06 (stated to be a 1.5" drop all around). I didn't quite get that much out of them, more like an inch or just a tad over/under. Honestly, I'd like for it to have been a little bit more (closer to 1.5" would have been perfect). I'm hoping they settle in a bit more in the next couple hundred miles, I only have a couple hundred on them at present. The SR would correspond to the Pro-Kit I believe, with the Sportlines being a more aggressive drop. Since you're keeping stock struts/shocks, I'd go with the Pro Kit.

Sportlines will be more of an aggressive drop, that's for sure. If you want to go as low as possible, that's your best option.
Since we're a DIRECT distributor with Eibach, we can offer the best prices on the market. Feel free to check out our site and if you have any further questions, don't hesitate to ask!
Eibach Pro-Kit Performance Springs Mustang V6/GT/Boss
Eibach Sportline Lowering Springs Mustang V6/GT
If it was my car and I had to pick between the two, I would go with Sportlines. Seems like more guys go with Sportlines anyway. It'll maintain a good level of comfort for daily driving, and it will give you a better stance overall. A great option for a great price.

Alright guys ive decided to go with the Pro-Kit. I just want less fender gap. I really don't like the tucked look. Going to get the kit that AM sells with the springs, swaybars, bushings, and pro damper shocks and struts. Also going to add a panhard bar and caster-camber plates. Does this setup sound good? Thanks for the input guys.
