Spring options - 1982-1993 Mustang GT Registry Message Board

88rag · 12-14-2017, 06:55 PM

I'm looking to replace the original springs on my low mile '88GT convertible. Since Bullits are hard to come by, does anyone have any suggestions? From what I've read, they lower the car less than 1" and have a descent ride on the street which is what I'm looking for. I'm running 17" cobra rims and was also planning on replacing shocks with bilstein HDs.

Thanks for your suggestions

I went with the H&R springs and Bilstein shocks and strut.
The ride is firm but not harsh.

Thanks for the response. How much did they lower it?

The H&R Sport Springs lowered it 1 inch front and rear.
