Smile Eibach Sportlines - Finally...

Finally lowered, and couldn't be happier. What do you think?

I will have to get a Panhard bar. Already ordered from AM.

Glad I went with the Sportlines.

TY... Yes, 18 x 9 with a +24mm offset. Just the springs for now, will get the shocks/struts in a month or two...

1.5 maybe in the front, but the back was a little over 2". I have a vert, and the weight was the difference. I will measure after a few days to get a true drop amount. But for what ever reason my mustang sat WAY to tall in the back. The pro kit is the 1.5 drop, and I would have been very upset with that little of a drop. Please note, my car sat VERY high in the back...

See for yourself...

Lowing Springs are a MUST on these mustangs. Off the lot, the wheel gap is insane.

Yeah, I'd say springs will be my next purchase.

Looks fantastic! After going back and seeing the before, it makes the stock stance and these cars look ridiculous. How did that roll off the factory floor with someone thinking "that looks good"?
