I've lowered my car with Eibach sportlines 2.25 inches and i want to go lower. I keep seeing other stangs lower than mine and i like the look. I want to remove my isolators but will the ride quality suck I was thinking you might be able to hear the spring rubbing. What will happen if i remove them.

My car never squeaked once when I had no isolators.
Don't even trip!

Spring isolators are the rubber round pieces on bottom of the springs, correct?

Isolators are the bushings between the spring and the front A arms, rear control arms.. My car felt better without them...little harsher ride.. nothing big though.. and drops about 1/4" more int he front maybe a little less in the rear
