Haha. I guess I should have gone with the 080. I actually tried to sell the PP stuff locally. I wanted to try the Koni or Steeda actives. When I didn't get much interest I decided to stick with them. The 18-19 PP rear shocks are supposedly better than the 15-17. Hopefully, that's the case since these came from an 18 GT. So far everything feels like a clear upgrade from the base V6 springs and dampers.
I was thinking the SP080 might not get as low on the V6 but in any case I agree with you. I don't necessarily subscribe to the idea that any wheel gap looks like a truck. The cosmetics of low aren't as important to me as how the car drives. With some it seems the primary motivation for owning a Mustang is Instagram.
I agree. Ride & handling over looks IMO. If you can get both, then great! Any more suspension mods in the plans? Front sway bar maybe?
Interesting you should ask. I have PP1 sway bars, too. I wanted to first see how it much of a difference springs and dampers made by themselves, including how much stiffer it rode, before doing anything else. I will eventually put those on.
Good call. Should be a well matched setup.
When I first eyeballed it I thought it looked like the rear had dropped about 1/2 inch as advertised but the front stayed about the same. So it went from having the same gap to less in the rear. I haven't really examined it closely since then. I will take a pic (maybe I can do a before/after comparison) on Friday, which will be exactly one week from installation.
