yep what they said, I have the K springs, the 18's fill up the wheel well nicely with the 1.5" drop. Beware you will hit curbs if you dont pull up short though.

You got pics of ur ride?

not with my black wheels but have a couple old ones with the stock 18" bullits on it. Will get them posted jup later on when I get home.

PS: Put black 2010 GT500 wheels on yours and both our rides would look alike, the SC I think dropped it just a bit my jack is harder to get under the car now I have to use 4x4 wheel chalks just to have jack clearence on the front.

That was right after we installed the 'P' springs. We figure she dropped alittle less then an inch in the front (blower weight made the OEM's lower then usual?) and alittle more then an inch in the rear.

I'm very happy with how she handles and rides now. I think it gave her just the right look (need a slightly larger rear tire though).

When I finally got around to measuring her on a level surface. There was maybe 20lbs of stuff in the trunk (spare, jack, etc were removed long, long ago), tire pressure was 34frt & 32 rr, tire size 255/45/ZR18 frt & 285/40ZR18 rr, and she had just under 3/4 tank of gas.

- Front from the ground to the fender: 27 1/2" with roughly a 4 3/4" wheel (not tire) to fender gap

- Rear from the ground to the fender: 28 1/2" with roughly a 5 5/8" wheel (not tire) to fender gap (my rear tires are just about ready to be replaced)

The right to left is with in a 1/16th of an inch of each other.

I have the Roush springs, which lowered mine about 1 inch. I like it, but I don't love it. My K Springs are being delivered today.

I dont have 18's on mine but do have the FRPP springs. And I love them on my stang, they give the car a nice clean look.
