So they're niche targas eh?

Yeah mine should look similar in stance. I have the k springs, so if it's 1.5" for a drop, mine should look the same.

Oh, and thanks for reminding me how *hitty a state I live in

Phil are you sure sportlines are 2.5" drop? Now I'm trying to remember how many inches drop my ford k springs are. Can anyone confirm?

Because here's a pic I took a couple months ago when I did a test fit... These look the same if not lower than your last few sportline photos... God I love my new setup and stance...

Yep mine is 1.5" for a drop.

Someone said sportlines are 2.5? They're 1.4 and 1.5... So my k is actually lower.

Yeah but most springs are an approx. drop. To me the Sportlines look lower than yours. The wheels appear to be more tucked into the wheel well. K-springs are an approx. 1.5" drop. Did you measure before and after to see if you actually got that?

I didn't check, but prior years for Eibach have been Pro-kit: 1.5-1.7" drop, Sportline: 1.9-2.1" drop.

Nope I didn't measure. I guess what I'm saying is, I don't want it any lower... Whatever my k's are, are perfect. I just didn't know if the sportlines were supposed to be lower.

Sportline is too low often scrapes on speed bumps. Vince even scraped his rocker panel last summer.

Sportlines are lower. No question.

Many people swap them out because the ride is pretty harsh for most.

If I knew then what I know now.... I would have gone with KW variant 3 coilovers.

New black 5.0 emblems!


After the Borla Cat Back system went on.

Still need sound clips of the exhaust and need to start getting everything together to get rid of some of that wheel gap!

Actually tony, with the weather finally creeping up into the 40s here, I'm going to mount them on the car this weekend. I have to do the musical chairs thing and mount them, then deflate inflate, then marry them via the ford TPMS tool my buddy has. I'll keep y'all posted.

Nice! How'd you remove your existing 5.0 emblems?

My friend's Serge's 2014 GT500 with K springs. He will have the same size as yours Burton. He exchanged his chrome black mambas for gunmetal. The offsets are almost like the Niche's.
