hurt my tires any?

yes your tires will wear down irregularly, on my car the inside tread on the left tire wore out fast, and the outside tread on my right tire wore out fast

No. For a 1.25 drop it shouldn't affect the geometry that much but you will need to have it realigned.

PHB is if you want better performance. It seems that you are going for looks.

yeahh! when my car was bought in 00 i think some one check the Off road option!
cause my shit sits so high..

i like steeda springs looks more aggresive the eibach prokit

YOU DO NOT NEED C/C PLATES FOR ANYTHIN AT 1.5 OR LESS. AT 1.5 IT IS RECOMMENDED, AND NEEDED FOR MORE THAN THAT.

the stock set up can handle that drop, just get an alignment after you are done. you will not have tire wear issues if the alignment is done right.

thank you! i been sayin that on 3 fourms now and finally some one agrees

[mrbigjeep]

well now that you got your answer let me ask a question without starting a new thread...

to lower the mustang 1.25" do you need anything else besides the springs??? or is it just the coils and thats it and i'm good to go? sry i'm COMPLETELY new to lowering. i had a jeep before the stang and i LIFTED it

[HMUSN]

just the springs is fine.

[mrbigjeep]

sweet. i ordered a mach 1 grill delete this week...looks like a lowering kit will be somewhere high on my list if i just have to buy springs and alignment. thanks

sorry your wrong. i don't have c/c plates with eibach pro kit and my tires don't wear irregularly at all. all depends on how good the alignment is.

i run steeda superlight springs lakewood upper and lower control arms with strange 10way adjustable shocks and struts. after i did my install i took it to the ford dealer and got it aligned no problems car drives and handles great.

[oh2swapped]

i have the sportlines no CC plates no alignment...wore out the inside of the tires fast lol but that was my fault...so get the alignment

[ReverendDexter]

If you're doing it for looks, then, no, you don't need CC plates.

Of course, if you're doing it just for looks, that means you're something that rhymes with 'nicer'.

[hardhitter]

You might need them, I'm just barely within specs with a 1" drop. I have bilsteins too if that makes a difference.
