Default Lowering Springs

I have an 04 Mustang Gt was wondering which lowering springs would be best for it and how much it would lower the car.

Car is red fire with demon body kit but with a spider III hood, some steeda interior pieces, tinted windows, and 18x8 boyd coddington smoothie rims on order.

Here is an answer for you.

Steeda lowering springs will lower your car 1 - 1.25 inches. They can be had here at mustangtuning for 200-300 depending on which you preffer.

If you want it lower i have no idea where to look for that.

Also check out the suspension part on here and look for the lowering springs, that will answer a lot of your questions.

I have to agree with Stang00, it is gonna look kinda ricy, but if that is your thing go for it. When doing anything with your car do what you like and dont worry about that others say. After all, it should be a personal statement.

You ricey bastard you.

Dont listen to anyone else, its your car modify it how you choose.

Anway, I have the C springs from MT and they are a great spring imo. They lowered it about an inch and I couldnt go much lower due to curb to get into my driveway.

They are a good price and help looks and handling. Ride is not that bad, they are a linear rate spring so they are not as forgiving as some springs but they are not a bad ride by any means.

if you want to go way lower, try eibach springs (sportline). They're supposed to lower your car roughly 1.5 to 2 inches.
