[QUOTE="adidasUNT8, post: 11170854, member: 127346"] I had sportline springs with 20"s on my 06 GT and it looked really nice but I think with that steep of a drop it actually hurts your performance. I just lowered my new one and went with the eibach pro-kit. The ride is much smoother and it gives the lower control arms a better angle for better planting traction under harder acceleration. With sportlines it will ride really rough, especially with 20"s. I had tokico d-specs and it still felt like a jackhammer on some roads. A buddy of mine and I lowered mine this past weekend. I picked up an adjustable panhard bar and as soon as i dropped it off the jackstands it was very obvious that this was a MUST have. The rear ended shifted to where the drivers tire was sticking out an inch from the fender and it was sucking in an inch from the fender on the passenger side. Also you'll want to get all wheels re-aligned with a reputable shop. So what you'll probably want to get is Lowering springs, Adjustable panhard, and LCAs. Maybe some upgraded shocks as well, but I'm not that familiar with the SVTPP package and what all it includes... Good luck with it!!! It will definitely handle much better around corners and look more aggressive :beer: [/QUOTE]
