Hey everyone,

Was wondering if anyone has heard of or ran the B&G S2 Sport Springs on their Mazda 3. I'm looking to purchase either those or the standard Eibach Pro Kit and install by the weekend.

B&G drops front & back 1.4", lifetime warranty
Eibach drops front 1.4", back 1.2", not sure about warranty

Not going to spoil the price difference until I can get some solid answers :P

Ive never heard of B&G so im going to say go with The Eibach Prokit. It has a Million mile warrenty (so basically lifetime)

I was considering these 2 springs as well, and did some research. The B&G advertise to be 1.4 all around but I believe the back is a bit higher, and the prokit is more of a even drop especially for hatches maybe around 1.2 all around? Eibach has the million mile warranty, and the msrp of prokit is actually higher than B&G on all website that I searched through but because Prokit is so popular and lot of sponsors stocks them, you can actually get prokit much cheaper than B&G. But don't get me wrong, because B&G is a very reputable brand in the German community such as bimmers, and vws.

I believe two members of our forum has the BG springs, but I don't think they are still active, but here are the links for their ride, you can have an idea of the drop, also I noticed both of them experienced a weird sound after running the springs for a while.

B&Gs are ugly. The rear sits way too high and looks retarded. For that reason, i'd go with the Eibachs

I'm hearing a lot about that actually ... I think I might pick up a set from Peter if he'll respond to me this week and install Saturday
