Thanks Matt.. I like them. The new size however does rub now when I turn but only sometimes. The new tires are 245/45/17. My old rims and tires were 235/40/17 and they didn't rub no mater how tight you turned.

Thanks for the comments guys!! :)
I already have the ford "B" springs. I guess they lower the car 1 inch in the front and 1/2 inch in the rear.. I really don't want it lower than that because I live in the country and our roads suck ass! Plus ya never know what little critters will be runnin out in the road!:-(

it will give it a nice stance and the ride will not be too bad.

Looks good Mike....I had the motorsport springs in my 86 GT...you'll like'em. They break in nice and gives it a nice look.
Yea I just finally got around to installing the fronts fms springs on my fox a couple days ago...what a difference.
So now I have the B springs all around and it gave the car a great look even with the welds on it. about a fingers width of gap between the tire/fender and a nice raked stance not to high/low just about perfect. I'll take a picture of it later for ya to show ya what it would end up looking like. Mine have 0 cut out of them also, so you might want to cut off 1/2 a coil or so to bring the rear down flush with the front, depends on you.

thanks for the comments guys!! For the type of roads we have up here I don't think I could go any lower so I'm sure I'll be happy with the B springs.
you will be surprised, B springs dropped mine further then I thought it would. But of course I dont have any isolaters on them, They must of been taken off the old springs/rotted off so I never bought new ones.
