RE: need advise on spring kit
Here's a link to a really good article by Stang Suspension (a supporter of this forum) which may help.

Thanks it seems no one had much of an opinion. BTW, great looking car; I was torn between the silver satin and the screaming yellow, it was a coin toss but I went with the silver because I got a better deal.

eibach springs get my vote, i got their pro-kit and can vouch for it, the install is easy.. use hte search function and look for something by me, in one or 2 threads i gave a step by step.
people like this kit so much that now my local dealer is installing the kit before they sell the car

i say either the steeda which provide a slight drop so you dont have clearance problems, or the Road Magnet springs lke i have. Naturally, i'm going to lean twoards what i have but it seems the steeda are about the same as mine... 1.2" drop all around

RE: need advise on spring kit
Thanks for the opinions, I went with the Eibach Pro kit. My dealer installed them and will warranty them also. I had to switch my old springs out because the front left was apparently defective and was wearing out the strut bushing/bearing. As the dealer did not do the original install they would not warranty the bushing. The drop with the Eibachs is identical to my old springs, and yes I do have a problem with speed bumps but deal with it.
