Nice.. I run the same wheels on my '98. I run cut springs on the 03 vert and would not have it any other way. They sit perfect and ride like stock.

Yeah she loves em'. We went with the nexen tires and the ride great we'll deffinately get then again but next time we'll go 315 out back. The g/f wants a v8 but im a chevy guy so I told her it has to be an LS motor. So maybe it'll get an ls3 with cam and such in the future.

Yeah, figured I'd get ragged about that. Can't help it ford wont make a N/A motor worth a crap. Maybe the 2011 6.2L will be decent, until then im stickin with good ol LS motors.

Springs cut correctly ride just as well as stock, while still lowering the car.

Nope, I cant afford any more toys. It belongs to a guy named Phil. He's a cool guy and his Ty is nice. If you see him again make him stop and check it out.

Well I screwed up and cut about 1 1/2 coils. It seemed to settle more after a couple weeks and now rides horrible. I got some dropzone 2" springs for it now. Do cut springs usually settle more? I wouldn't think they would but I swear these did. The car is actually in peices now, while instaling the front springs and changing the oil erlyer this week we had a catastrofic (sry for spelling) jack failure and ended up with a cracked oil pan. So my week has sucked, I've been outta work sence june with a broke wrist,had to have 3hr worth of surgery to fix 'em up, and then this. Just picked up the new oil pan from ford today, 120.00 bucks, nobody had a used one. Now she is sittin on jack stands with the whole damn front end out from under it. And to top it all off I have no air tools, been doin it all the old fashion way.
