    Default Looking to get coilovers for a good price!

    Hey everyone,

    I have a 2012 3, and I'm looking to get coilovers relatively soon. I'm looking to lower it quite a bit, as well as give it some negative camber. I was looking at the Corksport coilovers, but I'd like to save as much money as possible. Where else can I go to find fully adjustable coilovers? Thanks

    Go for a good brand & don't cheap out... Just my advice as I didn't.

    ST, KW, Bilsteins. Of the 3, ST would set you back about 1000, Bilsteins at around 1600, KW are even higher depending on the model. Like what others have suggested, don't cheap out. Had BC coilovers prior and they were meh. Have the Bilsteins now and I like them a lot.

    depends what you're interested in. if it's just for pure looks and you're on a budget, nothing wrong with going more affordable. I'm about 45,000km into my racelands in the last year and a half and they're holding up great.
    Wanted to go lower but didn't have the funds for an expensive set so i decided to try it. For $400, it was worth a shot. if i could do it again, i probably would have tried the Ultimos or the Primos (neither of which existed for the Mazda3 at the time).
    plus right now they're doing free shipping

    I had BC coils, thought they were good until I went to Bilstein. Never looked back. You are looking for a comfy ride? I HIGHLY recommend Bilstein.
    Would also recommend the Cork sport. @CelestSpeed3 had them and they were very nice

    They don't come with the camber plates though, that's what puts me off them.
