When my car was stock on the exact same wheels/tires, I remember there being more wheel gap on my car. Maybe the pick is throwing me off. Any idea on suspension mods yet?

So far, I've heard nothing but good things about BMR and Whiteline. Springs, panhard bar, uca, lca w/relo bracket, that should get me started! I need to do more reading on shocks or possibly coilovers before I decide the exact route I want to go. I went through 3 different lifts with the jeep, I did all the installs myself including the lockers and replacing the rear axle, so I have some experience with turning wrenches. I just want to do it right the first time with the Mustang.
I am always open to suggestions though. I know there are modifications that can be done to the front suspension. Most of the things I've read is about whats needed for he rear.

Thanks everyone for the welcomes!
