Steeda’s progressive lowering springs for the S550 use a dual-rate spring with two linear rates connected by a rate transition range. What does this mean to our customers? In short, it means the springs are more predictable and easier to tune.

Our progressive springs were designed and tuned for a setup consisting of one to two people at 200 lbs each with a full tank of gas in the car.

These are our best selling spring & our customers have been very happy with the results:

Are the base GT shocks and struts different from the premium?

Sorry, I meant non PP vs PP...and no, base and premium non-PP are the same.

After installing 8 sets of springs on my GT I ended up Re-installing the Swift springs. Should of never taken them off. Best springs out there. Stay away from progressives. The Swifts are linears.

The progressives are great ... but if you are looking at linear springs, we have those too:

Progressives are blah.....to me more of a grandma cadillac ride. Linears are more predictable especially at high speeds.

The Steeda progressive or dual rate springs and have an outstanding ride quality with great handling characteristics.

The new progressive springs that are developed today are fantastic.

It's a myth that progressive springs are not predictable.

Furthermore, more road racers and Sprint Cup drivers are using dual rate springs.

Lastly, the Shelby GT350R uses a dual rate spring.

More info from Hyperco the number one NASCAR and road race chassis spring supplier in America:

For grand touring and high-performance driving, progressive rate springs offer great ride quality and superior handling due to the roll control offered by the springs.

This is especially true if a reduced ride height is desired. The initial light rate provides a great ride, while the increased secondary rate assures a load carrying capability unavailable if lowering with a linear rate spring is attempted. Most high-performance driving involves a fixed vehicle package with only one or two passengers and very limited extra weight. This is the ideal situation for progressive rate springs.

I have an opportunity to attain some Vogtland Sport Plus fastback version (s550 Mustang) with a low 1500 miles on them. Do you think they will still work for my 16' GT Convertible? have asked Vogtland but would love opinions.

I had these springs. They are a great choice if ya want to go low. Not so low to where you are scraping things. I posted pics of my ride in here.
