Wiking Posted February 3, 2011 Report Share Posted February 3, 2011 Hey, I would like to lower my GT500KR-2008, I have also ordered a new set of 20" Alcoa wheels. Any recommendations? Could I get away with only changing the springs? http://www.fordracingparts.com/parts/part_details.asp?PartKeyField=9882 Thanks, Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
6-Speed Posted February 3, 2011 Report Share Posted February 3, 2011 Those will work to lower your KR some. I installed those same springs on my 07 GT500, with stock struts/shocks and they work just fine. I also installed an adjustable panhard bar in back and camber plates up front.

6-Speed Posted February 3, 2011 Report Share Posted February 3, 2011 (edited) Another option is to just wait until you install those 20" Alcoas to see if you still want the suspension lower. If you go with larger tires, it may help to fill your wheel wells without further lowering. Edited February 3, 2011 by 6-Speed Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hey, I talked to the guys at Ford racing at they recommended the following, http://www.fordracingpartsdirect.com/SHELBY_GT500_HANDLING_PACK_p/m-2007-fr3svt.htm. Any one that have any experience with this set up? Thanks// Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Furthermore, the KR already has stiffer sway bars over the GT500 so what you have is fine. IMO, the adjustable shocks that come with that package are over-priced for what you get; you can do better with Tokico D-Specs or Koni Yellows. Just my 2 c.
