Default which caster plates?!?!?

ok i don't start a flame war here but i couldn't find much info on these. I was wondering if there is any real difference betweens brands or can someone recommend a good brand and reputable place to purchase a set from. Im planning on a set of either eibach pro's or the steeda springs.

If I had to choose I would go with Steeda Sports instead of Eibachs. I could be wrong on this but I have been hearing good and bad things about the
Eibach springs lately. Forget these springs and get H&R's instead you will very happy with the results.

i did hear good things about the steedas but the drop is only 1-1.25" i like the pro kit with the 1.5" drop. i have heard about problems with sagging and uneven drop from members on this board, they come with a million mile warranty? i think the HR's also have a 1.5" drop.

anyone else have input on the caster plates?

Maximum Motor Sports!! http://maximummotorsports.com/cc.asp Check the link and read up. I have heard a lot of Mustang owners bitch about most of the CC plates out there for noise and bearing failure but very few have anything other than praise for the MMM plates. Take a look at all of the CC plates out there and make up your own mind what is best for you. One other MMM product that is much different in form and function than almost any other out there is their strut tower brace: http://maximummotorsports.com/stb.asp Read up on that little beauty as well.

Good luck with your ride!
