what was the rating drop on the Sport springs? 1.6 front/1.5 rear?
just under 2" with the stock iso's

how come not many people run coilovers? Too expensive for most?
i wouldn't let the price difference make the decision but in my case i didn't need them. they also tend to make noise

18" is the only way to go with the FR500 wheel

i run coilovers on my Z they are pretty aggressive and noisy (setup for track), but the handling makes it worthwhile.

I run C/O's and the MM ones aren't noisy when setup right. They are stiff, but I do agree the trade in ride quality for handling is worth it, atleast IMO.

you got a link to their website?

If you want to mess with the best in terms of Mustang suspension then I recommend Maximum Motorsports if your car see's frequent road use. Their parts are of great quality and will take the beating of DD use. MM pieces are very worry free and will make your car handle much better, and on top of that they won't break the bank as much as most other highend Mustang suspension companies will. Most Mustang people will recommend MM over other suspension companies.
Maximum Motorsports :: The Leader In Mustang Performance Suspension

If I was going to build the ultimate track car and/or had deep pockets then I would personaly choose Griggs Racing over MM. They have some very badass track cars and their records speak for themselves. I like their Subframe Connector, and if I had the money and Road Raced I would love one of their Short/Long Arm front suspensions.
Griggs Racing Products

Agent 47 is a good alternitive to Griggs,(they also offer a SLA front suspension and are cheaper also, but still very good from my understanding) but I think their kits are mainly geared toward racing and I'm not sure if they make any for street cars or not.
Agent 47

I think that a SLA front suspension is cool, but their expensive and unnecessary unless your pretty big into Road Racing. The MacPhersons can be made to handle very well.

I believe KW also makes C/O's for Mustangs that are suppose to be very good, but I believe their expensive.
