Best Springs for Lowering

[domkud]

Hey Guys,

I have a 2014 Mazda 3 GT Hatchback and wanted to purchase springs to lower my car. I was told my local shop can get Tein. Has anyone lowered their mazda 3 and if so, which springs? Also, anyone has pictures of their setup?

follow the thread above...
Things you should consider when lowering on any spring with stock shock/strut.

Eibach prokits will work. I had it on my 2014 mazda 3 GT sedan.

Did you drop it on stock shocks? Did you just replace the springs on original shocks? or did you purchase new shocks and/or endlinks..etc

In my case I installed the Eibach Pro-kits on oem shocks. My oem shocks and struts lasted to approx 240,000 kms before needing replacement. The Pro-kits are not a huge drop but good enough, and do actually make the car handle much better without causing a harsh ride in my experience.

OEM shocks, just swapped the springs.

I went with the Corksport lowering springs...but actually found them on Kijiji for less than half the price.
Of all the springs i looked at these dropped the most 2.25 inches front and 1.75 rear.

I put Eibach pro kits on my car at about 20,000km and now my car has 308,000km no issues still have original struts on it but rear shocks have been replaced
