The Eibach Sportline springs will give you about a 2" drop all
the way around.If you went slow over speedbumps or up or down
driveways you should be fine but,I know quite a few people that
scratched the heck out of the bottom of their cars going to
low depends on where you live I guess.Most of the people I know
are very happy with the 1.5" drop from the Eibach Pro Kit.
I belive that 1.5" is just enough drop to loss the 4X4 stance and still
have a nice drop on your mustang without scratching the bottom
of your car everywhere.One of my cousins' friends had a 94 GT with Eibach
Sportlines without the spring isolators and on a high speedbump ripped
off one of his cats and his passenger side skirt.
I think you will like the drop from the Eibach Pro Kit most people do.

You think I will be fine when I get my 315s on rear and 275 up front with the prokits ?

i mean that since he cut that coil my car will hit anything that protrudes 1 1/2 inches off the ground. say for instance, a can on its side......a 2x4......a dead squirel......drive on car lifts.......speed bumps......pot holes.....random things in the road.... thats sort of stuff. :)

yea totaly, its a really good kit man, one good thing to do is when you do it to get some shocks/struts. Its also a good idea to get a fox body set of shocks/struts, since they have more travel for a lowered car. soooooo..... no more bottoming out.

I have sportlines with tokico blues and have never bottomed out. As long as you take it easy going over speed bumps you should not have a problem. I plan on running the sprortlines once I install my BBK L/T's as well. 8)

Scarface, that is really good to hear. I was pretty nervous about scraping. Are you running a tubular K?
