- Tim.ocon replied to the thread S197 First stang.I had a feeling they were made my eibach because the spring rates are exactly the same between the sport lines and the k springs (see full post)
- Tim.ocon replied to the thread S197 First stang.Got the suspension (almost) all put on Sunday! After waiting for my front struts on back order for what felt like years they finally came in. Full adjustable koni yellows matched with a set of Eibach sportline springs. With the springs and a pair... (see full post)

- Tim.ocon replied to the thread S197 Eibach 4.12535 - Sportline Kit.Negative camber won’t be to much of an issue. I’ll be installing camber bolts at the same time and once it’s all done I’d be doing an alignment to fix any issues anyway. I’m currently running a 255 front 285 rear on a 9.5 inch wheel which I don’t... (see full post)
- Tim.ocon replied to the thread S197 3V S197 Lowering Springs Options?.Wondering if you have got and installed the koni yellows. I’m looking into getting springs for my car and the Steeda sports keep coming up. I already have a set of koni yellows and I was curious about how the springs pair with those dampers (see full post)
- Tim.ocon replied to the thread BMR 1.5inch lowering springs (SP068R).Noted. My dad has the p springs on his car and I find them a little bit rough. Do you have experience with these springs or just that 1.5 inch is a bit much for performance? (see full post)
- Tim.ocon replied to the thread Huge brake upgrade for S197 chassis.When I end up getting different wheels with they hopefully be a 10.5 or 11 (see full post)
- Tim.ocon replied to the thread Huge brake upgrade for S197 chassis.It would probably be cheaper then shipping them to be honest (see full post)
- Tim.ocon replied to the thread Huge brake upgrade for S197 chassis.Okay thanks. So then I will probably have an easier time finding a 19 inch wheel that will clear the 6 pots then an 18 inch wheel.I had been looking at 18 inch apexs during the sale more as a day dream then an actual idea and the shipping to...

- Tim.ocon replied to the thread Huge brake upgrade for S197 chassis.Awesome thanks. I’m going to run the 4 pots for now until I can same up some money and buy different wheels. Is the issue of them fitting internal barrel size of wheel or is it the spokes coming in contact with the callipers (see full post)
- Tim.ocon replied to the thread S550 brake swap for s197.This is what I was thinking aswell. If I later get different wheels some day will I be able to use the same brake lines and rotors with the 6 pots?is it worth upgrading rear callipers or just getting a set of performance pads for the back?

- Tim.ocon replied to the thread Huge brake upgrade for S197 chassis.I may have missed this reading the previous 32 pages so I apologize is this is a repeat. Wondering if anyone knows weather the 6 pot s550 brakes will fit under my 07-09 gt500 wheels. I currently have a 20mm spacer. (see full post)
- Tim.ocon replied to the thread S550 brake swap for s197.I believe I found my answer but then there is the question of if it’s even worth buying the 4 Pots or just buying the 6 pots. Only concern would be in the 6 pots will fit under my wheels in the front (see full post)
