Default steeda or eibach??

Steeda springs or Eibach springs? I know there are different styles of each, I just want to know which brand you prefer. My '05 GT is used as my daily driver, but i drive it hard and want it to perform at its best potential. Let me know!!!

I too had to make this decision, I chose the eibachs cuz they gave me a lower drop. A friend of mine got the steedas and he wasn't happy about the drop. Eibachs will give you the lowest drop possible and i recommend them over any springs.

I plan on Steedas

#1 because I plan on installing the CDC agressive chin spoiler, which I'm left with 5 1/2" left for room from stock height.
#2 on this island, roads are **itty, lots of potholes etc.

I orderd eibach sportlines for the low low drop, and I plan on getting a cdc classic chin spoiler eventually. Just drive carefully and you'll be ok

You know, thats a good point. Future mods include Eibach springs but the roads around my way are not all that great. How much more rigid will the ride become and will it hurt my baby on f___ up roads?

If you go with the sportline I would not even thank about getting the chin spoiler. You will regret it if you do I have the sportline and I could not imagine it being any lower on the front end.One slip up and there goes your bumper.

I bought a set of Tokico D-Spec 16 way adjustable shocks and struts. Which makes a big difference in the ride. The stock shocks can not handle near as well as the Tokico I've driven with both on my lowered stang.
