Thanks!
Here is matko's car with Ultra Lites (with 20's) and then mine (with 18's):
Attachment 11423 Attachment 11424
His always looks lower when parked next to mine. It may be the Nitto-555 tires on his compared to the BFG's on mine. His tires are more squared off where the tread meets the sidewall, and mine are a little more round. Both are 255mm wide tires, though.

Well, if its a higher number like the factory (45mm) they will tuck under the fender more. Mine are 38mm (perfect for 05+ Mustangs), and matko's are 24mm (stick out a little past the fenderwell, but not much).

Why, thank you! Lowering your car will give it that perfect stance, too!

You may or may not need an adjustable panhard bar. When you lower the car, the rear axle moves over toward the driver's side. An adjustable panhard bar from BMR will fix that problem perfectly. These springs don't really drop the car all that much, but you will still need to have the alignment checked. Most likely, they will be able to dial it in to the factory specs. Toe they can definitely fix, caster won't change, and camber has a pretty big window (.75 degrees +/- .75 degrees).

Don't order it until you find out if you need it. Some people (TacoBill) get lucky and the rear axle centers itself AFTER you lower it. After you lower it and let the suspension settle for a few weeks, tape a string with a nut on the end over the rear fenderwells. Measure between the string and the edge of the side wall. If it's 1/4" difference from side to side, you'll have to move the axle over 1/8" to correct it.
The funny thing is, you adjust it with the axle on the ground... so you are actually moving the chassis and body one way or the other by adjusting the panhard bar.
