suspension and wheel trouble


Hey I just got a 02 gt mustang...only thing is that the stock wheels are bald and it sits really high.

I no almost nothing about suspension and wheels

Should I just get a coil over package and lower it 2-2.5 inches?

When lowered should I get 19's in the back and 18's in the front?


I got about a 2000 budget and any help would be awesome so I dont F things up. thx!

haha k so the drop you have considered is pretty low and will require new shocks and struts and caster camber plates so you have an alignment thats close to stock. after that the rims i dunno 19" might be too big with a 2" drop and will rub. i rubbed a bit with my 2" drop and 17" tires but i got low profiles now and no rub

You should get a Eibach Sportline kit and a set of caster camber plates. With the 18x9s up front and 19x10.5s in the back your car should look mean.
