eibach pro kit is one of the best kits i think out there but u would also need caster camber plates also so u can adjust everything easier

I bought them for the same reason you did...even tho i have not put them on yet im 99.9% sure that i will be happy. Only thing i have read is that it takes a few weeks for them to fully "drop" to the 1 and 1.25 drop.

Would I Have To Purchase The Plates Separately? Are They Expensive?

I have the FRPP C springs. You do not need C/C plates with them.

How Much Did They Lower Your Stang? Is It Very Noticeable That It's Lowered?

my roommate went from eibach sportlines to frpp B springs and loves it. The sportlines are too low for our area, and the b springs are about the same drop as my pro-kit, but more of a stiff spring. My car bounces over speed bumps when just creeping, and his is very stiff and smooth

Wish I could give some useful input on the FRPP springs, but I throroughly enjoy my pro-kit. Aside from the blown-out shocks...

I have the C springs - perfect drop IMO......however, you better get new shocks and struts because the car will ride like a dump truck after youre done.
