Lowering springs

I bought Ford Racing C Springs(lowering 1-1.25in) for my 01 Convertible.
I went to see how much it would cost to have them installed and the guy was telling me I would probably need new struts because they would always be bottoming out when I hit big bumps. Does anyone have this setup or that would know from experience if this will happen or is it just a precaution, or is the guy full of shit.

Thanks

Struts are a good thing to get when you do a spring swap. They are going to have to drop them to do the spring swap anyway so it is a good time to do it. You will not get the full effect of a spring swap without them and at 5 years old its not likely that they would last long with that much of a drop. If you are just going for looks don’t go all out with adjustable ones.

Doing a spring swap on any mustang is easy to do yourself if you have the time, place, and tools to do it.
