Thanks, Darren! The drop looks good, and handles well. A big improvement. Check out Eibach's promotional video, this is what sold me:

For everyone running the Eibach system how is the ride compared to stock. I know it handles better but I trying to put together a system that will ride smooth and not be to stiff and bumpy. Its gonna be either the Eibach system or Koni Str & steeda springs. I don't want anything adjustable as I will not be tracking it.

I haven't ridden in any of the S197s with Eibach stuff, but I had the Pro-kit on my SN95. I'd go with the Steeda/Koni combo...

Love those Ford Racing wheels, but I will guarantee you will grow tired of cleaning them. There's something about Ford's design that causes dirt/sand/pebbles to collect in the corners of each and every spoke.

Ride is about 10% stiffer than stock.

every saturday or sunday morning I enjoy detailing my vehicles so it's not a big deal for me. My black fx4 supercrew is the biggest job.

Not so terrible. As they accumulate brake dust they actually just get darker, and look like OEM GT500 wheels.
