I HAVE A 2001 MUSTANG GT STEEDA COUPE CONVERSION. MY BUDDY HAS A 2000 SALEEN S-281 CONVERT. UNSTEAD OF GOING WITH STEEDA SPRINGS I WENT WITH SALEEN RACE CRAFT PROGRESSIVE LOWERING SPRINGS. THE EXACT SAME SPRINGS THAT ARE ON HIS SALEEN. BUT HIS CAR SITS LOWER THAN MINE, ATLEASE ANOTHER 1 1/2 TO 2 INCHS. I CALLED SALEEN TODAY AND TALKED TO SOMEONE AND THEY SAID THE SPRINGS JUST HAVE TO SETTAL,... BUT I BOUGHT THESE SPRINGS AND THEY HAD 5000 MILES ON THEM, AND THEY'VE BEEN ON MY CAR FOR A WHILE. I ASKED THE GUY AT SALEEN IF THERE'S ANYTHING ON MY BUDDYS CAR THAT I COULD BUY FROM SALEEN THAT WOULD MAKE MINE AS LOW. HE SAID NO. . THERE IS NOOOOO WAY THAT MY SPRINGS COULD SETTAL THAT MUCH MORE. PLEASE SOMEONE TELL ME WHY MY FRIENDS SALEENS FENDER IS LIKE ALMOST TOUCHING THE TIRE AND MINE IS LIKE 2-3 INCHS AWAY FROM THE TIRE.

(ALSO OUR TIRE SIZE IS THE SAME EXCEPT IN THE BACK. 265-35-18'S FRONT AND BACK ON MINE AND 265-35-18 FRONT AND 295-35-18 BACK ON HIS.)

IS THERE ANYTHING I CAN BUY TO MAKE MINE AS LOW. OR WHY IS IT HIS SITS LOWER? HERE'S A PIC OF HIS CAR, AND YOU CAN FIND A PIC OF MY CAR AT ... http://www.hometown.aol.com/steedamustang01
DOWNLOAD HIS PIC AND THEN LOOK AT A PIC OF MINE TO SEE THE DIFFERENCE.
