Pics of Steeda Springs installed?

Doe anyone have some pics of their 2010/11 with the Steeda Sport or Ultralite Springs installed. I was just curious about the look, as I am planning to do either set as one of my first modifications.

Thanks for any help...

Steeda Ultralites installed...

I love them, still ride excellent. I am sure there are stiffer springs out there, but my back appreciates these "softer" springs(still stiffer than stock)

Posts are sayin the brembo has a stiffer ride than the stock GT. So you might want to call Steedagus and ask him his thoughts on which steeda springs to go with.
I'm having sports installed on my non-brembo next week Mine is white. I think your black will "look" lower than a lighter colored Stang.

WeinerDog & Intervention... thanks for the awesome pics! That gives me a good idea about the stance, as the description for both (Ultralite and Sport) are calling for a 1" drop in the front and about 1.25" in the rear.

Both of your ride looks awsome!

That's exactly what I was looking for!


I am already in contact with Gus from Steeda... my shopping list is growing by the day!!!

Panhard and alignment. Rouch grill. Lower C/S with fogs. Rear GT 500 diffuser.
And maybe factory 1/4 louvers. (I already have them,and painted, but I like the SH better. At least I can remove them if I don't like).

I didnt modify anything else when I had the springs put in.

I brought it in for an alignment just to double check. But it was only off .25 of a degree, hardly worth fixing.

See this thread. I've got a pic of a customer's white Brembo car on Sports (there are two versions, this is the only version I use).

I too like these and i am wondering if any other modifications need to be made. This would be a much cheaper route than getting a full coilover kit but i dont want to do it if it will effect ride quality or damage other components in the future.

I've read that an adjustable panhard bard is highly recommended

I have been looking for a 2010+ with these wheels, I think they should come factory with that offset and rear dish look! I too had wondered if with a small spacer would fit over the Brembo's. I really love the way those wheels look. It would be nice to see a painted finish like OEM.


Back on topic, I like the Steeda spring the most I think. Even with a 1" front and 1 1/4" rear the rake of the car still exists, it's not flat like you might think.

Thanks for the compliments, y'all! (That's all y'all).

Andy, with the Steeda Sports mine dropped .80 in the front and 1.33 rear. I know the springs are different on the '11's though.

I generally keep a good stock of Sports here in stock and a few Ultralite sets too. In fact I have a shipment coming in next week. .
