I'll say this. Many in the BMW world have had good experiences. Many have had bad. Hard track use WILL snap the housing in half, or worse.

The link doesn't work. But it doesn't matter the people in the e36 BMW crowd who were into these a few years back were people with low cost cars who were on a very low budget. I owned 7 BMW's over more than 30 years and you would never catch me even considering Raceland coil-overs they are junk. I would hope the S550 Mustang owners on this forum would be smarter than that. If you can't afford to buy quality coil-overs keep the suspension you have on your car. If you can afford quality suspension components look here there lots of choices http://www.tirerack.com/suspension/...Mustang+Fastback&autoYear=2016&autoModClar=V6 or here http://www.mustang6g.com/forums/showthread.php?t=56302 I just bought the Steeda Pro-Action Shocks & Struts and I plan to use the stock springs because I can't lower my car and still get in my garage. If you PM David at Steeda he will give you a promo code that will save you some money on the Steeda shocks and struts. You should read thru the Steeda thread just for information in it. Bottom line Raceland would be a choice that I would never make.

Given the amount of labor involved in a swap, do it once, not 6x. At least go with something like BC for coils. Raceland is 100% garbage.

I have bought many suspension setups on this car trying to save dime and a nickel. At the end with all the money I lost I bought pretty much the best street coilover and I am 200% satisfied with it.

My neighbor who has a BMW was really pushing for the Raceland. When I showed him my Ford Track package kit sitting in the garage. Just waiting for the off season to install.

I bought the APEX wheels based on his opinion and don't regret the decision. Just thought I would ask.

Your neighbor is just a baller on a budget.

People who are serious about suspensions don't run Raceland or BC. They run things like Bilstein, Koni, Penske, or Ohlin.

Check out some of the shock dynos for Raceland and prepare to be amazed by the lack of consistency.

moddiction.com has some ISC coilovers for $881. They come with a five year warranty and from what i've heard they are well built. Might be something to consider for a few extra bucks.
