how well do the ultra lites reduce squatting and nose diving--is it a noticable improvement over the stock springs?

Can't speak for the springs by themselves as I also swapped out the shocks/struts for Tokico's. With that set up I have almost zero nose dive and with the right setting on the Tokico's, she squats in the back like she's supposed to...

Hi Neil:
To answer your question, I can tell you from my own experience that the ride is definitely stiffer. You get a tighter handling car all around, including nose dive although Ford did a good job with stock 05 Mustangs as far as nose dive. The downside is the car is not quite as comfy for a daily drive.
Your other best bet is Eibach.
Nick

thanks everyone for bringing this thread back! all your cars look HOT.

lowering the car truly does bring out the amazing bodylines of the mustang.

i cant believe great the car looks and at this price point!!
