I am going to be changing my wheels to Motegi Touge's in a few weeks upgrading from 17's all around to 18x9 up fron and 18x10 in the back.My question is how much can I lower the car to help fill in the wheelwells. going with the standard plus 1/plus 2 guideline my total wheel tire diameter will be the same as stock. I don't want to drag or rub ,just clean it up. Who makes the best springs ? How much does it usually cost etc.. Thanks in advance .

Ford racing or eibach are probably the best. but they're among the pricier. you can get some other springs that are still good and a little cheaper.

don't drop more than 1.5".

I want to put the same size wheels on mine. I have seen mustangs with saleen replica wheels with Eibach sportline springs on them. Thats a drop of 2" I think that puts it at the perfect height. Why do you say dont drop more than 1.5"s?

Get some hydraulics on that puppy and set her on the ground yo! J/K

From what I have seen 1 - 1.5" is the general rule of thumb. If you go any further than that a set of C/C plates are in order i believe? Correct me if i'm wrong guys.

yea i wouldnt drop past 1.5". i know a guy that has a 2" all around it looks absolutely slammed scrapes every little thing in the world. speed bumps become your worst enemy

ive got a 1.3 inch drop and i think it looks good.... eibach pro springs and ive got steeda CC plates also

here are some pics of it with the drop.

yeah, definitely don't drop too much. I've got a 2 inch drop...looks awesome, rides like **** lol

then again my springs are some generic brand...need some new ones, prolly gonna get eibachs

I have Intrax springs, 2" front 1.75" rear...they're pretty nice.
