Check out stangsuspension.com they have a good selection. You would probably like the eibach pro-kit. There is a ford racing spring that is very similar to that too. Youll also find those at stansuspension.com and they're a sponsor you'll get a discount. Im not sure if the steedas are progressive rate, but you should make sure you get progressive springs. Ive heard some people are disappointed with the steedas, but yes they do make quality products.

I have the steeda competition springs and they are good quality.. never had a problem with them.. but If I had to do it over again I would probably get something a bit lower.... but I'm going to be going to a coilover kit eventually anyway.

I'm getting frpp c srpings next week. They give the car a nice drop, and you don't sacrifice track times like you would with a really stiff spring. I would go with the c-springs...
