OK, a bit of a caveat here 1st ... It's pretty safe bet to say that all aftermarket springs are based upon a base model vehicle. With that said, the PP2 OE springs already provide a slightly lower ride height v. a base model Mustang. Steeda installed their "dual rate ultimate handling" spring set (555-8243) on my 2019 PP2. When everything settled, the measurement taken at the very front of the extended (PP2) splitter was 5.0". I should note that the basic reason for installing the springs at all was to inhibit the extreme squat on acceleration & dive on braking ... not necessarily to lower the car. Lowering it was merely a very slight additional enhancement. Steeda made the recommendation based upon my input ... &, in my case, it worked out perfectly.Let me ask you this: The link/photo above is for this for the MagneRide Sport Lowering Springs (#555-8242). I'm looking for a little less drop, so saw the MagneRide Dual Rate Ultimate Handling Springs (#555-8243) are 0.750" v. 1.0". Which of those two (2) springs rides "better", talking day-to-day use?
An additional note to your last point about day-to-day driving ... I just completed a 6,000 mile drive from Tejas up to Mackinaw Island, then east thru OH, PA & NY then into Canada. After that, south to MD, down the coast to FL (thru Sebring to Ft. Myers), north on I-75 to I-10 to New Orleans & eventually back to Tejas. The only places I winced a bit regarding the suspension were Toronto (absolutely the worst frickin' metropolitan roads I have ever driven on. We are talking '3rd world' pavement!!!) & I-4 in FL due to (drum roll here, please) construction. Other than that, w/almost 18k miles on it (I picked it up last Thanksgiving), it has been an absolute delight to drive.
