lowering springs

03stangGT · 12-15-2003, 10:04 PM

hey I've got and 03 gt, and I'm ready to get rid of the "4x4" package they come with, I'm a little unsure as to weather I should go with eibach, or steeda. Eibach has the prokit, and the sportline, and they both sound the same, minus the fact that the sportline lowers the car a little more. If I can avoid having to mess with the alignment (caster camber plates, alignment kits etc.) I'd prefer that. I dont race the car much, just the ocasional rice, and maybe a trip to the track every couple months..if that. Any suggestions?? thanks

03 GT

Go with the Eibach Pro Kit... You won't be sorry.

I would also go ahead and save for the caster\camber plates.
In my opinion, they're worth the cost...

I would go with H&R.

The Pro-Kit is a progressive rate spring where as the Sportline is a specific rate spring.
Not sure how your road surfaces are up there, but here in PA they are terrible. I went with the Eibach Pro-Kit and Bilsteins shocks on my Tbird and couldn't have been happier. Handling and looks were improved 5 fold, and the car still took up the rough parts with not much drama.
