first day of spring mods
temps are still bone chilling in michigan but i finally got my suspension and wheels installed. I went with Ford K Springs and Roush blue shocks/struts. These are the staggered AMR 20" wheels with 255/35/20 fronts and 305/30/20 rears. Ride quality is way better than I expected it to be. If I would have known it would have been this smooth, I would have dropped the car same day I got it. I was considering sportlines but glad I went with these, very happy w/the drop and clearance.

Nice location for the photo. Car looks great - but a sunny day would really help to brighten up the photo.

Love those rims man, ride looks amazing!

thank you! yes, unfortunately we had sun today but a large cloud covered it right when i got to the spot i wanted to take the pictures at. will take more pics as it warms up, the springs settle and i finish a few more details.

That looks soo good. I cant stress how much i prefer this over the 2013+ models.

I'm sure it's going be a great set-up, make sure to post pics. I think most of the reviews I read on the k springs must have been from those running them on shock shocks/struts which led to a rougher ride. with the frpp shocks, it should definitely be compliant. i also went with gt500 strut mounts. going to get an alignment next week.

yeah thanks, they're the charcoal. i was really indifferent to the color, if they would have had silver I may have got those. because they were so cheap, i was considering having them painted something custom but the guys at my body shop said it would have been a shame to paint the factory color because it does look good.

Are those amr's black or charcoal? They look black but could be the lighting. I still haven't decided if I wanna go black or charcoal on my black '13. Looks sexy either way, nice stance now.

Looks awesome! I'm running the same springs, wish I would have gotten 20s though!

yeah, i saw they a smoking hot deal for the p springs and struts but i didn't know they had one going for the k springs. should be awesome. i got my roush struts brand new off craigslist for $170 otherwise I would have went with Koni SRT's most likely.

my setup also came with GT500 strut mounts. actually, a bunch of Ford stuff together in a packaged deal -- K springs, FR shocks, and the strut mounts all from LMR. i figured it's a good way to keep everything "in the family" so to speak.

that means a lot coming from you, ive always thought your performance white looks incredible in the pics u've posted.
