Lowering Springs

What would you recommend for my 89? Eibach seems like the popular choice but I'd rather hear some experiences.

thanks

I've got a mixture of Eibach and Roush on my GT installed by the previous owner and they've been fine. Never heard anything bad about the Eibachs.

Eibach is great on my car, I should've went with the Sportline and get that 2" drop, but oh well. You can try Steeda as well, they have excellent quality springs.

Eibach are awsome. I have Sportline installed on my car. deleted Quad aswell as MAC upper and lower control arms. Kenny Brown subframe

Eibach sport line Pros: GREAT HANDLEING!! I've had my car up to top speed and I can move from lane to lane on the highway and she just glides. The Comfort is good to.

Cons : 60' time hurt with stock set up

I've pulled better times with the stock springs

my car only sits 1.75 lower in the rear and a little higher in the front.
It all depends on your application though.

I belive they have 3 types of springs
Drag Kit
Pro Kit
Sportline

What ever you do, stay away from Ford Motorsport springs. The worst mod I ever did!

Though I have Eibach's, I did hear that the FRPP "C" springs were pretty good?

C's are good for road course combined with Koni "yellow" shocks. A little harsh riding on the street
