Spring Rate Recommendation Request

  • As a service to our customers purchasing coil-over kits directly from Maximum Motorsports, we'll make a recommendation specific to your particular Mustang and its usage. Just answer the questions below.
  • Required: You must purchase MM Tech Services before submitting this form.
  • If you don't buy direct from MM, ask for tech support from wherever you buy your MM Coil-over Kit.
