Simple 2014 GT suspension

I've been pricing some stuff out, and doing a little research. This is what I have come up with. My plans were to lower my '14 GT,with some 20x8.5 & 20x10.5 Niche Milan's, and I feel that what I have posted here, should be the bare minimum of how I should start off. Any thoughts on what I have picked out?

I see no issue except for the Milans... I hear they are TERRIBLE rims.

Between you and gabe and some others, you can't beat me to having them on before I do in spring.

Kidding... That's a good selection for suspension. I'll be doing something similar in the future.

Can't speak on the springs but the rest looks good. I went with BMR springs and I like the ride and lowered look. I also have a set of Niche's and they are a quality rim. Your wishlist looks good to me

That pic shows niche? Or you have another set?

After some advice from a bunch of people, I may be going with the BMR springs too

I would check to make sure the STR.T's can support that much of a drop and keep the ride comfortable, unless you don't care about a jarring ride.

A few people that I have talked to have this particular setup, and they make it seem that it is just fine.

They may be good for lowering and ride decent, too. But beware of those who made a financial decision on parts, are not really happy, but stand by what they bought because the commitment was made. IMO, read all you can before you decide.

Also, keep in mind with a drop you may have geometry issues. Caster/camber plates, bump steer kit, and adjustable panhard bar may all be required to get the car running in top shape.
