I can tell you that with my Sportlines and 25mm spacers, my rears are just about touching the fender (can barely fit a finger in there). I'd imagine with the Extremes you'd want 20mm at the very most.
Here's how it looks with the stock 17" rims.

Ok it’s lowered finally. Only problem now is when i turn the wheel is squeaky. Torqued everything down. I’m gonna gut under and look again but figured any advice would be helpful.

Ok figured it out. I torqued everything down but after lifting it noticed the front Spring was a little loose. Tightened the strut but down more with a breaker bar. Got another full thread on each side and problem solved. It was torqued down to spec before and looked fine upon install. But oh well this is why you double check things. Anyways man this thing handles so much better now. My normal everyday drive through my local area shows i can take the turns faster and it feels like it’s on rails. I’ll get pics up soon. Need to find a new image hosting site since photobucker sucks now.

Ok here are the pics. Why is it such a pain to load images in this day and age on a forum? Oh and car is very dirty. Wheels come in a few days so ill get new pics then.

Glad to see a more extreme Lowering spring on the market. Beats sportlines by being linear alone! I think these will be the ones to go on the 2018 stang. Just need to figure out the shocks/struts options (don’t have a Perf Pack)

I need some help. I can't decide between coilovers and just springs. Any advice would be appreciated. My wheel and tire setup is in my signature line. I really just want better handling and to eliminate the wheel gap. Heres a very bad very old picture I have of the wheel gap (sorry my car is at the shop right now) Figured I'd need spacers too at some point

Both coilovers and springs will lead to better handling and reduced wheel gap...the question is, how much are you willing to spend?
Springs plus dampers is cheaper than coilovers, but you don't have the adjustability, which you might or might not want. Don't forget that each time ride height is adjustment, alignment will change...if you can't align yourself, that's another inconvenience.
Personally, I'd go with springs plus dampers, whatever other suspension mod you want, then spacers, and finally alignment to get the look/performance that you want.

Trying to lower my car using stock 18" wheels on the EcoBoost Mustang. Any good pricing from Steeda? Who is better in this case Steeda or Eibach? Can't decide.
Looking for a nice even drop with a smooth ride and not loose my current feel with stock springs.
