Default Looking for some opinions...

Hey guys just joined. I have this 03 GT that has been mildly modded. I'm wondering if I should lower it a little more. It has the Pro-Kit on it right now but I have been thinking about the Sportline. What do you think? Any draw backs to go with the shorter springs? Anyone have some pics of Mustangs running that kit?

Also, I have 275-40-17's on all four corners. What do you think would be a good size for the rear to give it a little more beef? Or if you have any other suggestions on things that I could do that would look cool! I'm sort of new to Mustangs... at least owning this model.

I already posted these pics in the new member thread but here are some again so you can see what I have. Thanks!!

I have the Eibach Pro Kit as well, and i'm about to pull the trigger on some H&R Super Sports. The pro kit just isn't low enough for me any more, and i'm tired of it. I'm going to try it without after market c&c plates, but i will be getting the off set steering rack bushings, and poly isolators.

I assume those are 17x9 rims?? If so then a 275 is a perfect fit. Any wider and it won't fit and perform as well. You could throw on a 315 Nitto 555R on the rear (it's been done many times before) and get far better straight line traction, but it will still bulge over a bit.

only thing i can think of is speed bumps... if you have any/many near you .. i love the stance of mine lowered, but i have a few places around town i can't go now because of it..

nice stang btw.. and it does look like it could use a little bit more lowering.. or beef up them rear tires!
