a 275/55/18 tire is about 30 inches tall. your stock tires are around 27.5. Your wheel gap looks bigger than stock.

you should get lca relocation brackets, depending on what springs you go with. The BMR springs on my car dropped the rear 1.75 inches so the control arms needed to be relocated so they would be parallel to the ground again. Lowering the car can actually make the wheel hop worse without relocation brackets. Wheel hop is bad and can lead to parts breaking in the rear. Also a panhard rod is not necessary but it's a good idea. It keeps the car centered over the rear axle

lca relocation brackets and a panhard bar are needed. You will break stuff without them. I drove my car a few days after i lowered without anything but the springs and in made my axle leak(the pumpkin thing). Put these other parts on and it stopped. cheapest ones are the bmr part for both.

That tire package is made for the 94-04 mustangs. It still will look pretty good when you lower it. Next time when you buy new tires, just remember to get 255/45/18's in the front and 285/40/18's in the back.

lol, yes that is what i ment. There is a bunch of links on how to install that stuff in one of my recent threads labeled "I'm catching up emay" or something like that. To adjust the panhard bar you start out by making it the same size as your stock bar. That will be close to what you need. After you install it, find out if the axle needs to be moved to the left or the right and adjust as needed.
