want to change out steeda ultra-lite springs for roush or bullitts

i am currently running steeda ultra-lite springs. for me it was the perfect comprimise between looks and real world driving practicality.

i had never scraped on any huge speed bumps, steep driveways, or anything.... until i got my hellion turbo. the lower turbo pipes now scrape on those things.

so... i want to raise my ride height. leaning towards roush, but now considering bullitt springs.

saw only one bullitt and i don't really remember.... is the 6mm drop in ride height noticable? with a bullitt and a GT side-by-side, can you really tell there is a difference in height? i want the most ground clearance possible without the stockers 4x4 look. thanks for any help. also sorry if it is a re-post. search was unsuccessful.

I have an 08' bullitt and the stock drop is hardly noticeable. 6mm is only about 1/4"...

I replaced my bullit springs with Steeda Sports and think it looks much better...but that's only my opinion.

i was thinking of those.

at least on the ones that i saw, even the minimum drop was either the same or lower than what i am running right now.

-8bullitt0621, that isn't too encouraging. do you have any before pics that show the profile at eye-level?

-cheese302, thanks for the offer. i think i will try my club or locally first.. just to save on shipping costs.
