Suspension Opinions
#1
Ive researched this so much I'm just lost and confused.

As most know, I have a 2010 Mustang GT. I'm in the process of lowering the car to get rid of the 4x4 look Ford decided to give the S197 Mustangs.

What I'm trying to accomplish is a good performer in the twisties as well as to have a good as possible quality ride over normal everyday roads. Phoenix roads suck. I can feel every single bump, expansion joint etc.. I know lowering and quality ride can be an oxymoron but theres got to be a way to achieve both, or at least a happy medium.

I recently purchased the Eibach Pro Kit lowering springs. Now I'm looking into the shocks and struts.

I cant decide between the
Tokico D-spec shocks and struts (adjustable)
Steeda Pro Action shocks and struts (non adjustable)
Koni STrt. struts and shocks (non adjustable)

What I care most about is lowering the car without feeling like I have no suspension.

Do any of you guys here have any recommendation or experiences?

When I go to all the other Mustang sites out there and read, everyone just has an opinion and it feels like some of those opinions are from manufacturers instead of real world users.

I'm also second guessing myself on the Eibach Pro Kit and wondering if I shouldn't have gone with the Steeda Ultra Lite springs instead. Any opinions on this?
The bad thing about reading to much is you just get confused and dont know what direction to go. What I cant do is have to do this twice to get it right.
