Lower or not to lower?

ma67cpe · February 21st, 2009, 09:42 PM

I bought the handling kit from the local mustang shop and was just wondering if I should lower the car 1 inch or just do the sway bars and shocks exc and leave the height alone? Just looking for opinions and mybe some before and after photos?

I voted to lower it. I'm about 2" lower in the front and back and I think it looks good. Kind of gives it an aggressive stance.

Lowered.

the closer to the ground,the lower the center of gravity.this will make it less top heaveyand it will handle and corner better.

on the ground is the way to go. no one wants to go off road in a mustang.

I plan to do the shelby drop, cut 1 1/2 coils out of the front. Gonna try 2 inch lowering blocks in the rear. I like that low and lean look.
