That's the problem with the Eibach Pro Kit a lot of times it doesn't lower enough.

Yea i was thinking Sportlines but i DD my car so it wouldn't be a good idea for me IMO. Im just happy my car doesn't look like a monster truck anymore it looks a lot cleaner and the handling did change for the better but it is stiff on bumps but hey its a Mustang anyway lol...

I have sportlines on my 00 gt. The ride actually isn't that bad at all.

Yeah I know how u feel I was debating like crazy when I wanted to lower the stang, I went with sportlines & went along and replaced the shocks and struts felt so much better even lowered IMO, but your car looks good with the pro kit like the color too

Looks great and I've always loved that color. The springs should settle in some more if they're brand new!

You realize you are driving a budget sports car with huge production tolerances? One set of springs will sit one way on one car and another way on another.

If you're going to take out your iso's... do us a favor a cut a coil off the springs also cause its looking like its still sitting pretty high.

Do removing isos really make that much of a difference?
