Best lowering springs

Im getting ready to purchase some lowering springs for my 2004 GT and I dont know which ones to buy. Pretty much between the H/R, Eibachs or Steedas. What do you think ?

Whatever Bo put on his car have to be the best looking springs I've ever seen. I don't think he really touched on how they handle, but dang his car looks nice now.

What spring rates are you thinking you want to run? What do you plan on doing with the car? What dampers are you using?

Not sure what car you have

I had H&R supersport on my 04 gt vert and loved em
I now have H&R supersport on my 98 gt coupe and wouldnt do it any other way

(if im not mistaken, on the box they ship them in, there's something like "Consumer rate #1, or something like that" ) some quote.

Little over an inch since Mach's are lower than GTs. I think the drop is 1 3/8 on GTs.

I personally like the Eibach. I was only supose to get a 1.5 inch drop but it turned out to be 2 which I am not complaining. Looks really nice IMO.

Should be just over an inch and a half on GT's then, because the Mach is supposed to be 3/4 of an inch lower than a GT.
