my steeda comp springs are great- the ride isn't as rough as you would think. i highly recommend them. i had a friend who knew how to do springs watch over me while i did it- it was quick and easy. the fronts are VERY dangerous, however. i recommend finding someone to help you through it, and using a professional lift. but anyway, if you're gonna go with springs and not coilovers, i would tell anyone witha stang to do what i did. it's my daily driver and it is not that rough.

so I hear the sportlines are much better than the pro kit and they lower the car more. So when I get springs how exactly do I install them.?

don't even bother telling people to search... i have been saying it for some time and no one listens... it would also be nice if people put their posts in the right section but that doesn't happen either (but this one happens to be in the right section cuz he asked about install haha)

Last summer I put thepro-kit on myDD and love it. Idid the whole thing pretty much by myself in the garage on a saturday afternoon. For me it's the perfect drop. Some of the roads I travel daily are pretty rough andI've never scraped. Also I'm running withouth CC plates and it aligned with no problems and the ride quality is fineand I'm still on stock shocks/struts at the moment. I have to recommend the eibachs.
(edit) forgot to mention this is what it looks like with the lower front isolators removed. I put both rears and the upper front isolators in when I did mine.

you'll be dissapointed. I don't know one person who has 'no wheel gap' with sportlines unless they are on the 95-98 chasis and even they have some. I run 245 45 17 in front, 255 45 in rear. in order for all the wheel gap to go away- with those wheels- the oil pan would hit the floor before the gap went away. youd need to run like a 305 35 18 in the rear and a 265 40 18 in the front to even come close to eliminating the gap on sportlines on our chasis.
