I'm not interested in them as they lower it nearly an inch and my track pack with R springs and R splitter is only 3.5" now.

Interesting, wonder what the effects on the magneride calibration and dampining will be.
Ride height will definitely need to be relearned.

Ford Performance already has their springs developed. Just a matter of when marketing and management will release them.

Yeah. Which is more than likely made by Eibach. At least Eibach tells how much they drop the car. Every time I call FP they don't know anything. Annoying! That tells me they didn't make them. But they did tell me the part number.

Arent the R springs lower then the non R? So is it .9 lower then a GT350? or then a GT350R?

Im interest in this with the new suspension controller. I seem to be the only person who doesnt like the wheel gap on the car?

R Springs do not lower the car. The only ride height difference between an R and non-R are the 30 vs 35 series tires.

The R springs do not lower the car. The Eibach springs are progressive springs. If you want lower get the Eibach. If you want improved handling get the R.

DSC makes a magneride control that improves the cars handling. DSC makes it for ridetech and cortex. I have one on order and another member just installed his.

As much as I'd love to lessen the wheel gap, it already scrapes the splitter enough as it is :doh: Someone be the test dummy and post up some pics. I'm sure after I see one I won't be able to resist even though I swore I'd never lower this car :lol:

Less gap looks better, sure. I'd rather have the car as-engineered. A little gap is nothing new on sports cars and if you really look around, you'll see plenty of your favorite cars aren't stanced. ;)

Agreed.
Not to mention, downforce will close the gap. Put those lowering springs on and it'll start to rub.
