hey there,
Typically 2 inches is the most any one ever drops. When you go two inches, you are recommended however to also get new caster/camber plates to avoid unnecessary pressure on your tires from the drop.
However, i've read that dropping 1.5 inches does NOT require caster/camber plates so this is what alot of people do. The 1.5 drop is low and noticeable so I dont think you'd be disappointed.
It's recommended while swapping the springs to also change struts/shocks if they seem to be old (maybe over 100k km).
Good luck, your car will look sweetER once dropped (all stangs do)

buy mine? haha yes anything lower than 1.5 inches it is recommended that you get C/C plates and i can say anything around 1 inch is noticible on the car try to stick with well known brands i.e. eibach FRPP roush things like that suspension is one thing i wouldnt recomend going cheap on its preaty important
I think your stance looks good already, you New Edges sit alittle lower then the SN95's I think. 1.5" should make it look pretty sweet.
I'm lowering mine around 1.5" with eibach, beefed up sway bars, and new polytype bushings.
