So I guess it would be safe to assume that Hypercoils is also the manufacturer of Steeda's sport and ultra light springs as well ?

New owner sent me a pic of them installed already:

Wow ! The new owner sure didn't waste any time huh lol. So he or she must really like them If only I had known you were going to sell them before purchasing my Steeda Spyders, I would've purchased your Niche Milans from you Gabe.. But overall I've been really pleased with the Spyders and still continue to get compliments about them at car cruise events

Yeah I think the same company makes all their springs, but certainly not sure.
And yeah, he works quick, I think he drove right to the place to get them installed!!

I would think it's the same company as well.. As it really wouldn't seem to make much sense if Steeda had more than one company make their springs for them, but who really knows for sure other than Steeda and Hypercoils.. Just hope you never find out that Eibach is the manufacturer of the Steeda sport and ultra light springs lol.

And yes, the new owner worked very quickly in driving over to get the Milans installed.. Which just goes to show how excited he was to start showing them off

The Steeda rep I was asking specifically told me it's not Eibach making their springs, so I was good.
Anybody else but Crapbach.

If their not made by Hypercoils, hopefully it's possible that it just might be BMR

We had a preview of spring here last week and since the Mustang is no longer my winter warrior since January I figured I'd wash it and it would actually stay clean for a while.

Still cleans up nice for a "winter beater"!

I usually don't care for black/dark color wheels.. However they look absolutely stunning on your Race Red GT.. Also nice contrast as well

I added 2 stickers at about 5hp each, so my whip picked up roughly 15hp ... at least!
