That is definitely not 2" drop, more like 3.5".
I haven't even posted mine here. Mine is, with CS springs(3-1/4" drop).

Megan coils are nice..
Apparently I have the only set right now, as I bought them from the guy they Used as a spec car.

I hear they need a month break in period...
As they ride rather stiff right now..

how is the ride on the cork sport springs?

 

[tibimakai]

Pretty hard core, but I still like it. Some installed it and then went back to factory. I'm 50 and I have lower back pain, but I'm still fine.

 

[Chris_Top_Her]

From this

to this lol

 

[tibimakai]

That is great Chris. I think that I should buy at least a kit of it, that I could glue together and have on display.
Sometimes, I would like to go on a ride with it. I would like to play, with the main gun/turret, you know the hold the turret in place feature.
I still remember(since 85'), hot to turn that feature on.
That tank, it was pretty low.

Do the Corksport springs cause the cx-5 to scrape its front undercarriage when going up steep driveways? Also does lowering the car help eliminate everything in my trunk being thrown side to side when making turns on a 2016.5 cx-5

 

[tibimakai]

I never touch anything, except those concrete stops in the parking lots. If I go too deep into them, than I scrape a bit.
Look at my picture above, you can see, how close is that concrete piece to my car's front chin.

Does lowering the suspension stop all of my items from being thrown around the trunk when I turn?
