Steeda Boss Lowering Springs on GT?

Has anyone installed the Steeda Boss Lowering Springs on their GT yet? If so, what are your impressions? Have any pics?

I'm going back and forth between the Steeda Boss springs and the Steeda Sports.

If you are going to put them on a GT, you should know the following:


1) We HIGHLY recommend changing the shocks and struts if you are putting these on a GT.

2) The drop will be more on a GT vs the Boss. Around 3/4 to 7/8 of an inch in the front and around 1 1/4 inches in the rear.

The Boss are more for performance then they are looks, so choose wisely.

PM me if you have any questions.

Thanks

TJ

I bought Steeda Sports and Koni shocks/struts but there not on the car yet. I was told this is the best riding/lowering combo.

I'm also curious how the stiffer Boss springs will impact ride quality vs the softer Sport springs. I'm not concerned with lowering amount, just a good ride/handling balance that still works on a daily driver.

Daily driver, stay with the sport springs. Our Boss springs are designed more for a car thats on the track verse just street use.
