Eibach Sportlines VS HR Super Sport Springs
#5
I'm leaning toward the HR Sport vs Super Sport for this reason.

It seems that the (3) springs I mentioned spec out at about the same lowering distance.
The main noticeable difference is the spring rate. If your intention is to do a lot of road racing and corning then I suppose you would want the stiffer spring. In my case I want a little bit of everything... I want it to have the bad *** lowered look, I want it to ride reasonable well for a daily driver, I want it to handle well when I need it to.
Initially before research I wanted the eibock sportlines cause they produced probably the most drop of all. I was told that going that low caused all kinds of other problems and that the lower you go, the stiffer the ride etc etc.
Then I thought well I would go with the HR Super Sports... Then Maximum Motorsports techs who claimed they tested all the springs and based on their many feedback said that the majority were not happy with them cause it made the ride super harsh like riding in a shopping cart. Then I was informed that because of the minimal suspension travel on these mustangs that the best thing to do was to go about 1.25 to 1.5 or so on the drop to leave you with enough suspension travel to allow for good handling and a decent ride quality.. This was my understanding anyway. So based on all that it pointed me toward the HR Sport. reasonable spring rate for daily driver and reasonable drop without going so low you run into other issues with handling characteristics and scraping etc.

There's a guy I work with that has the coil overs on his 240Z. The car is so low you couldn't slide a dime under it. He is into that drifting stuff... For him, he loves it and it is his daily driver ...
