Eibach Pro Springs on MS3 - Pics!!

[MS3TR]

I got the Eibach Pro Springs put on my MS3 saturday, it looks amazing on this car! I just got the Akita AK-4 wheels last week and knew they would look awesome with a nice drop Body roll is reduced quite a bit and it reminds me of how stiff my 350z was, not too bad but you definitely know when you hit a decent bump or pothole. I know a few members have gotten the Sport version of these springs and I have no idea how they didn't scrub. Under normal driving conditions you don't scrub with the Pro Kit but if push this car hard like I do then you just might. I heard my rear tires scrub twice during a couple spirited runs up in the mountains. I'll just have to go to a lower profile tire, no big deal. If you want great looks with good a peformance increase as well, go with this Pro kit, just be aware you may need a lower profile tire than these stock Potenza's. I have one finger width in the front and barely two in the back, hopefully the back will settle a bit more over the next few weeks and make it even. To say the least I couldn't be happier with these springs, I highly recommend (cheers2)

What is the offset on these wheels? Perhaps the offset is a bit too low.

Looks good, BTW!

Looks great, may need to look into a set of springs soon.

Nice combo. Rims and the Pro Kit springs look just right. Even my wife thought that it was slick....meaning, I'll have to buy this combo for her MS3 soon....LOL.

rubbing is not good...

I still think the car is just the right height. I am not touching my height untill I need new springs. I do like the rims though as asked, what is the offset?

the drop definately makes it look better. Nice photos too- car looks great.

If you dont mind me asking. How much were they and where did you pick them up from? Also are they for the standard Mazda3?

Thanks for the comments guys (cheers2) I haven't scrubbed since pushing the car to its limits on Saturday but I will still be going to a lower profile tire to be safe. I have gotten more compliments this weekend on the car since I have had it(2thumbs)

I got them from Mean Street Motorsports and I believe they were around $250. They are for the standard 3 (5 door). The MazdaSpeed Springs weren't a big enough drop for me (for the money) and with a slightly lower profile tire, these Eibach springs will be perfect.
