Steeda S550 Pro-Action Shocks and Struts - Now Available!

[David@Steeda]

Got these, steeda sport linear springs, and the steeda sway bars w/billet mounts.
Had them on for 1 week so time for the springs to settle in and a few miles.

At the "recommended 1 turn from soft" the ride is great. I'm a daily driver car and don't want jarring or harsh ride. I also wasn't happy with the PP rear bouncy/floaty feel.

now Car rides nice and firm. But not harsh or jarring, still totally acceptable as a daily driver. I put on the 6GR rims with 285/325 MPSS and you could really feel the limitations of the PP suspension, Excess lean and pumping when pushing it hard. That's really gone now.

Can't wait to try the higher damping settings

I do have one complaint. I bought. Struts/shocks/sways/springs/billet sway, and NO STICKERS!!!! Really??

Awesome, glad you're liking the new Steeda setup! I can help with the stickers, pm me your order number!

I ordered my Steeda Pro-Action Shocks & Struts along with the 12mm Billet Rear Shock Mounts today. Can't wait to get them installed. I have already got the shipping notice. So far every suspension mod that I have done has improved either the steering responce or rear wheel hop. What I am looking for with these shocks & struts is improved ride quality along some improvement in handling. I have not always accomplished the goals I set out to achieve on shock & strut upgrades. Some of the upgrades have been costly mistakes that required going back to my original set up while others have been right on the mark. Let's hope this one hits the mark. I will report my results in a couple of week depending on how long it takes to get the shocks & struts installed.

Hi Steeda,
How does the shock allow for wider fronts compared to Koni's? I am wondering if I can fit 305 front without crazy camber or rolling fenders (if I go with the correct offsets).

Also, How do the stiffest settings compare to Koni Yellows? I am wondering if this will pair well with BMR Handling springs (300 front, 900+ rear). I'm assuming given the softer valving it would need to be run on the higher rebound settings compared to Konis (if paired with the BMR handling springs).

The largest tire we have run here at Steeda has been a 295/35/19.

You could probably get a 305 in, but it may require a spacer or special offset, this would be a case by case basis.

The Ford, Koni and Steeda struts are basically the same dimensions, so the tire and rim clearance would be the same

The Steeda Pro Actions are valved different from the Konis, furthermore, they will work great with the BMR Handling Springs. also they have enough control to work on the GT350 without the magnetic ride control.

Im only concerned about wider backs with pro action shocks. i shouldn't have an issue with 305/35/19's.

You know what would be cool? If the struts came pre-slotted....
