Default Roush Springs

Maybe a stupid question.. I know the springs on the brembo package are slightly different as far as rate, but I am not sure if that affects the ride height.

Will the 1" dropped rear springs still keep my ride height level or will I look like jacked up truck on the road with front way up

I did rears on my 06 (dont have pics anymore) but it actually leveled it out better IMO. It raised the front just slightly too. If I can find a pic Ill post it. Don't know how it would look on a 12 tho. When I did my 10 I lowered all the way around.

Agree with the previous poster - did the Roush rear springs on my '06 as well, and it worked like a charm. Leveled of perfectly.

My brother has them on his 2010 and like mentioned above they level the car perfectly. However, I have heard with a vert and have seen it will make the rear sag a little.

How was the ride after installing the Roush springs in your 06? I have an 07 (only 14k miles) and I was thinking of doing this, but the ride is already fairly stiff.

I run the roush rears with stock in the front. Went back to stock fronts because the supercharger added alot of weight in the front, it kinda lowered itself, lol. Rides great, not stiff at all, and leveled off nicely with the roush rears.

Anyone have a shot of their 10-13 with rear roush springs?

Hoping it will be level, 19's here as well.

Car looks great!

I really don't see the need for the panhard and other goodies just for lowering the rears do you?

I plan on struts/shocks and a lot more, but new baby = tight wallet.
