Didn't someone on the board say that eibach's didn't make springs for the ms3 yet so aren't these for the Mazda3 hatch?? isn't this a different spring rate?

thats awesome... but the teins drop it down like 2 in the front and maybe 1. 6 or so in the back i want to have a lil clearance because of the possible snow build up, you know what im sayin! theres lots of snow up there in ctown.... and the roads suck ass! but i just got my springs in the mail today, so next month when i go home i will post some pics.... and i just have the regular ol 3, but once i get the money... she's goin turbo

Ahhh but the Teins have two different ranges like the Eibachs do. The H-techs are about a 1in drop, which Im getting. And then the S-techs are the 1.5-2.0in drop. Whats up fellow eastsider?! Our roads doo suck lol

They have springs out for the Speed3 now, I wouldnt think of putting the regular 3 springs on... Same bodys but who knows.(dance)

A year has passed and I've read so many mixed reviews that both are either stiff or comfortable. I want to hear some updated opinions on:

Eibach Sportlines
Tein S-techs

For the MS3 of course..

yeah eibach claims a drop of 1.8" all of the way around for the sportlines, and on my regular mazda3 i can honestly say that now its been about six months, and the car is probably about 2.5" lower than it was, the stock tires are actually up into the rear fenders. i love these springs, but this time on my speed3, its going to be slammed the correct way-coilovers. now i'll be flying through the corners, rather than bouncing through them!

What about the Cobb Tuning Springs. I think they lower the car 1.0" in the fron and .9" in the back. Anyone have any experience with them? They were specifically designed for the MS3.

I'm planning on buying within the next week and I really would appreciate feedback between the two. The two I was referring to are:
Tein S-techs - 2.0 / 1.5
Eibach Sportlines - 1.8 / 1.8
