Has anyone used these shocks/struts on a lowered mustang? I'll be putting on some eibach pro springs and of course will need to upgrade. i'llprobably go with Tokico but am also interested in these other brands.

I think thoes are basically stock replacement parts. I haven't used either, and never heard anyone recommend them so I don't know.

OEM replacements are not up to the task. Spend the same amount on Tokico/Koni/Bilstein/QA1/KYB/Strange/etc... and get a proper performance part. High rate springs like you find on lowered cars shred the insides of OEM and OEM replacement dampers.
