2009 Mazda 5 Lowering and Camber Question

[tefloncandi]

I just ordered my H&R springs and wanted to know if after installing the springs will I need to purchase/install a camber kit?

Rear camber adjustment IMO is a necessity with these cars. I would do it at the same time you do the springs.

What is the recommended brand?

I know of two guys who ordered camber plates from Mazdaspeed, I believe originally meant for the Speed3. They also said they were pricey but totally worth it. One of them had H&R's too.

I just checked with MAZDASPEED and they gave me part number GRMS-8M-L07 for the camber plate but stated that they do not know if it will fit on an 09 Mazda5, WTF???? Is it becasue I am in Waco, Texas or is it becasue of the type of vehicle that I have, it really seems difficult to get t he right Tech Support!!
Can someone help me out; I have my brand new H&R's ready to be installed and I would like to have all of the work done at once.

Thanx in advance,

Yes - get the MazdaSpeed rear camber plates for the MS3 - they will work.

Mazdaspeed camber arms are not adjustable.... look for SPC camber instead.

Camber plates are for the fronts, not the rears of our vehicles. Camber arms are what you want - like Venom said.
