The great thing about the internet is that it allows a community to collaborate to find answers. Please Answer Yes or No. Thank you!

Would you buy a "REAR ONLY SPRING KIT" for the (S197) 05-12 Mustang to Level the vehicle?

no...the rear springs will perform better than the stock front ones...you need the whole set for optimum performance!

I have just the FRPP rear springs on my car to level the stance out. No problems with it.

If all you care about is levelling the car and not on how it handles then it can be done.

A lot of people seem to have used the Roush springs as they offer only rear springs and most companies sell a full set of four.

You can already get this - contact Ground Control and buy a set of rear springs and levelers, and you're good to go. Any height, any time, chooose your spring rate...

No, if I were to do springs I'd want to go ahead and do all 4 corners while I'm at it for the handling performance gain.

YES! Absolutely!!!! After recently doing a bunch of research on this subject, type of spring, amount of drop etc. I installed the Roush ONLY rear springs in my 06 to do away with the gap in the rear fender. They lowered the rear 1" making it the perfect rake. And most importantly there was absolutely ZERO difference in ride quality!

Trust me. DO IT!
