Default Lowering kit with wheels

It's me again! I have a 2002 GT. I want to lower my ride 1 inch and I also want to stick 18x9 wheels all the way around. I was wondering if both of these mods can be done without having any rubbing or any other problems? And what is the best lowering kit (company, etc.)

What size tires will you be getting? Eibach has good springs.

As long as you don't go wider than 275s for tires and get rims that are smaller than 19", you'll be fine.

I LOWERED MY CAR 2 INCHES WITH 18X10'S IN THE BACK THATS WITH A 285 IN THE BACK AND IT DOESNT HIT OR ANYTHING. HOWEVER IF YOU LOWER IT WITH THE SPORTLINES AND DO A 3 1/2 CAT BACK LIKE I DID IT WILL HIT THE REAR END WHEN YOU HIT A BUMP THEY HAD TO MAKE SOME ADJUSTMENTS. GOOD LUCK I HOPE I HELPED

Does anyone have a good setup for lowering a '93 notchback about an inch or two with 17 inch pony R wheels?

Hey, yeah that is true Eibach does have some good springs, some tires to consider are some Nittos or some Toyo Proxies, I was wondering if any of you guys knew if there are any sitres that show mustangs decked out with kits and rims and exhaust, not like drag type but street racing type please let me know, or if you even have a site like this.
