Rich from EFI and I installed my springs last night at the shop and man did it come out killer! Great job by EFI installing them. And the stance looks mean! it still has that stock look of the front sitting a little higher than the rear, and while I usually like the front end lower than the rear I really like how it sits and hopefully the front settles a bit more. The rear is low and sit flush af! the sites and Steeda claim 1 inch drop on the rear and 1.125 on the fronts but I swear when you compare the springs side by side it seems way way more than that haha. but I do think the drop is lower than advertised but I still clear curbs and haven't scrapped anything. forgive me as the car was still dirty when I snapped the the first set of pics. I still need to throw on the black badges and maybe install the intake. still deciding if I want to throw ithe intake on the car now or just wait to throw it on till I do the tune. but im also having trouble picking if I should do the tune next or the Roush wing to complement the springs. tough one.. lol
so results, sits much lower than stock, but spring rate was pretty similar so it still rides smooth and hits bumps the same without any harshness or added noise. it does seem to feel better and handle better but I haven't pushed it yes as I just did them last night and only drove it about an hr total between last night and the drive to work today. :xpatriot::xpatriot::xpatriot:

Looking good. I am dropped the same but debating if I should go lower, don't really like on mines that the front is a little higher than the rear. I went with the pro-kit

ya man, I hear you... I hate having the front sit higher.I prefer it (for looks) to sit even or lower in the front.... But I have noticed it settling and its close to being even now after a couple weeks.
I went with these because the wife and I didn't want to be scrapping everything everywhere like it got to be like in the cobra. These will be great for now until I do coil overs, IF I ever decide to go that far on this car.
Thanks for the reply
post some pics of your car if you don't mind and have some pics to share!

ride is still great. It is a little stiffer than stock but some good adjustable's should dial it in that part but it does get rid of a lot of roll and brake dive and can def hit the corner a bit harder but not like a great coil over set up. still haven't scraped anything knock on wood
