Cant decide on springs...

TClark22 · 05-30-2006, 08:57 PM

Well like the title says i cannot decide on a set of springs for my car

I really dont want to spend more money for c/c plates but i want a low drop like almost 2"

please help me

and if you sixer have any pics of these springs on your ride...please show them!!

Since you have 18s youll probably need caster camber plates when lowering it. Some do, some dont so buy the h&rs and if you need em, go buy some.

TClark22 · 05-30-2006, 09:12 PM

what c/c plates would you recommend if i need them? and how much

MattJ · 05-30-2006, 09:15 PM

Im partial to Maximum Motorsports anything, but id stick with MM or Steedas. Thats just me though...

95stangs · 05-30-2006, 09:16 PM

What plates do you have? I'm getting 17"s in a while, coming from 15"s.

does mustang tuning sell those 2?

and 95stangs...what tilt are you talking about...i am coming from 16's to 18's

floppy · 05-31-2006, 06:05 AM

whatever you do, if you buy caster camber plates make sure you use maximum motorsports.

and i voted h&r springs

95stangs · 05-31-2006, 08:34 AM

the top the the wheel is turning in and its noticable to me iam probably gonna get a caster camber and 18s are gonna be put on it later if its 2 high i might put the sportline kit ive got the pro right now 17s are a nice balance but i think there 2 small

TClark22 · 05-31-2006, 11:46 AM

that doesn't make sense to me, maybe i am just stupid, but when i replaced my 15's w/ 17's the rims w/ tires on the 17's are the exact same height just the ratio of rim to tire changed drastically. but in tclark's case his 18's are bigger then any stock wheel so i can see the possible need for c/c plates with a drop.

TClark22 · 05-31-2006, 07:09 PM

actually they are not much bigger if at all... lets see...18" + 35mm and 16 + 55mm..i dunno if they equal the same or not but they are not far off but i might just go ahead and buy the springs along with the c/c plates for saftey...and how hard are c/c plates to install and do i need to do anything special with them?

95stangs · 05-31-2006, 08:35 PM

depends on the tire, mine for some reason tilt i didn't think they would when i got them but they do

*Lances03SVT* · 06-01-2006, 04:52 AM

H&R's for the win.Why go any lower?You will scrape on everything and your ride will suffer!!

dewman2004 · 06-06-2006, 05:27 PM

95stangs · 06-07-2006, 10:07 AM

mstg97 · 06-07-2006, 11:55 AM

my alignment was just barely fine w/out CC plates, but to each his own. I'd try and get some just incase... I need them now, my alignment is WAY out...

95stangs · 06-07-2006, 01:04 PM

iam thinking of getting 18s and getting the sportline kit also need to get that cc plate
and i bought new headlights just haven't put them on and 1" spacers for the back tires, i hate that tucked look
