They are the only "name" springs I'm aware of that are designed to work with factory suspension components.

Thanks! Would you upgrade anything else while doing the springs?

 

[taba2]

No, that'll do it for me.

 

[greendemon]

Awesome thanks! I really want to hit up South Padre National Seashore so hope this slight lift well make it possible with the right tires of course.

 

[taba2]

Something I look forward to visiting too.

I will take my Maxtrax Minis when I do.

From what I’m seeing there, they don’t have them for the CX-5 yet? I’d be interested in these for my CX-9 but it looks like that is also not supported yet.

 

[taba2]

They do not.

When I asked, they said they will if enough request.

So email them.

 

[greendemon]

I’ve emailed them. Here’s to hoping!

@taba2 Did you get to install the tires? I’m wondering what kind of effect would the 235/55 tires give over the stock ones.

Finally installed the wheels and tires a couple weeks ago (pics to follow).

Not surprisingly (given the increased tread width, stiffer sidewalls, and five pounds less weight per corner), it handles significantly better. Like ancolx said, it feels closer to driving a sedan.

Haven't had a chance to take it off pavement yet, but I'm visiting Big Bend State Park/Terlingua next month and looking forward to seeing how it does on the gravel there.

Got pictures yet?

 

[taba2]

Sorry, finally took a couple.

 

[greendemon]

Looks good!!! I went to Palo Duro Canyon and realized I might need a Thule to carry all my stuff.

 

[taba2]

Really is very nice to be able to hide stuff away.

Sorry, finally took a couple.

When you get a chance can you list mod specs please?
Wheel: brand product diameter rim width offset
Tires: size speed and load index
Suspension mods
Specs for Those sweet pod lights!

Thanks!

 

[taba2]

Wheels and tires are in post #12, @Catch22.

No suspension mods.

Ended up with the Thule Motion XT L and Lightforce Venoms.
