The new sixth-generation Ford Mustang (S550) is the most recent iteration of the Mustang pony car that dates back to April 17, 1964. The vehicle was introduced as a 2015 model year vehicle with its launch celebrating 50 years since this iconic car first came onto our shores. Its engine is a 5.2L Predator V8 that produces a horsepower of up to 760 at 7,300 rpm and a torque of 625 lb-ft at 5,000 rpm. S550 has already switched to the independent rear suspension. This gave this car a smoother feel and improved cornering. For the S550 Mustang, there are many different coilovers options to choose from that will make your drive with S550 more comfortable.

A coilover is a popular choice when it comes to a vehicle’s suspension and handling, with a large range of different types and sizes available you’re likely to find a coilover that will meet your needs. Coilovers are adjustable with a specific spring rate depending on the user’s needs and style of driving – they can also be fine-tuned for a better ride. For a car’s better performance, a coilover helps in lowering the car and improving its cornering ability. It’s perfect for those who like to throw their car around and want a lowered (and aggressive) look to their vehicle. For the S550 Mustang, here are 7 different coilover options to choose from;
