I like the k-springs so far but i'm still envious of the eibach sportline drop. i know a lot of people have said the k-springs ride hard but I don't think they're bad at all. since i'm already acclimated to a spring considered firm, i'm wondering if the sportlines are any more harsh in terms of ride quality. if the feel is similar, i'm thinking of swapping for sportlines.

wondering if anyone has tried both and noticed any difference between the two? im currently on roush shocks/struts. any expert thoughts would be appreciated!

 

Can't comment on the springs but I would think if you can find the springs rates for each you could compare them which could let you know if they are similar at all.

 

I really like Eibach stuff. I had Pro Kit springs and they were great. I think that the Sportlines are progressive springs like the Pro Kits. The ride was so much better than stock springs. It took the pitch and roll out of the ride. The rear end wouldn't dip when I took off. It was a FWD car too though so I don't know. Can anyone else chime in?

 

Might also be better suited in the Suspension section.

 

I have the Eibach pro-kit and I also think it rides and launches better than stock.

 

I, too, have the Eibach Pro-System-Plus-Kit (springs, dampers, sway bars). Great package. 1" drop in front, 1.5" drop in rear. Body roll, dive, squat, and 'floatiness' from the stock set-up is gone. About 10% stiffer ride on the street. Great for mild track duty. Personally, I only track my car 3-4 times per year, so I will NOT move to Sportlines. They are too low and too aggressive for street driving IMO. But...if you're going to the track a lot, Sportlines might be a good set-up for you. Just my 2 cents. Good luck!

 

Ford did awesome job in terms of handling in 2014. I owned 2010 before and it was crazy on turns even in slow speed.

Are these springs are worth spending money now?

 

Find someone with aftermarket springs and struts in your area and see if they will give you a ride. All the brake dive and rear end squat is gone after you change over. It makes the car much more predictable.

 

Any after market spring is worth it based on looks alone. Most people can't live with the horrid 4x4 wheel gap that ford put stock on these cars.

 

Do we have issues with ford warranty if we made changes in suspension.

 

It depends on the dealer. One dealer I spoke to said the suspension change would affect all parts that touch or could be affected by the suspension. Ex. Brakes, control arms, rear axel, etc. needless to say, I don't bring my car there. The dealer I bring my car to now told me it voids the warranty on the parts I replaced.

 

to lower the ride do we only need to replace the springs or we need some other parts?

 

I have the Sportline Kit from AM on my 2010 GT. I gotta say it really puts it on the ground. I love the stance but you gotta be very careful going in and out of parkinglots. The ride is alittle rougher than stock but i love it wouldn't change a thing. I purchased the whole kit springs sway bars and shock/struts.

 

And you are running 20's I'm guessing? Looks great.

 

Yes i'm running 20's i couldn't imagine getting in a parking lot if i was running smaller wheels....Thanks for the compliments..

 

Okay I'll bite, how do your 20" wheels allow you to get in and out of parking lots, but a smaller diameter wheel wouldn't? A tire is a tire when they're all the same diameter, but a wheel wouldn't matter.

 

 

You stop that right now...

 

:butter:

 

LOL....Mods you guys do have a sense of humor after all. Ha ha.
