isos, yes. for where we live the car is absolutely as low as it can be and still be fun.

his plans are 18's after a few other small mods... and maybe forced induction :rockon:

Yeah looks good. How does the mach ride?

H&R SS & Bilstein combo is perfect for a street car! (car also has sub-frame & MM CC)

there's always more to do and things to add but for a basic lowered suspension set-up i really like it.

My mach with 1 coil cut in front with no iso and 3/4" cut in rear with no iso. Ride quality feels the same as stock height. The stock struts/shocks held up for quite a while, but I'm due for an upgrade soon with camber plates.

And I already have the set of bilsteins ready to go just need new springs and new mm cc plates. Yeah could do bump steer or ball joints etc etc you used regular length bilsteins right? Not shorter fix struts right?

What size tires did you end up installing? I want to do a staggered setup but I'm unsure what tire sizes to use.
