Being a Mustang owner for almost a year now. Nothing excites me more than the sight of a UPS/Fed Ex truck when I know something is coming in

The sound of a diesel engine couldnt be any sweeter LOL

waiting on a chin spoiler from him. He delivered my side skirts today and hood a few days ago. He always questions whats in the big heavy boxes HAHA. Suspension, exhaust and intake had him thinking it was over. I always tip him well to make sure he brings me my goodies first

Info for the future: the Eibach-Pro is a pretty big drop (although less than the sportlines). With regards to tires, you'll be ok if you stick with the stock tire diameter of 27.17" (235/55/17). But the trouble is, with 17" rims you are going to be really limited in what tires you can run. For example, if you wanted a wider tire, something like 255/45/17, its going to lower the car an additional .6 in (diameter = 26.03) which is starting to get into dragging speed bump area. I have a set of 18" rims, which give me a lot more options on tires while still maintaining reasonable ground clearance. I also have a set of light wt 17" rims with 255/40/17 tires that I use for autoX and track - man she sits low with these on, pretty impractical for street use unless I'm very sure the route I'm driving has no big pot holes, steep drives, speed bumps, etc.

Keep us updated on how she works with the stock dampers.
