Progress Springs drop

^^Wow that looks low. Can you post up more pics before the camber kit? How bad is the camber? Are you on stock shocks?
 
I think it loos exactly the same with MS3 springs, the rear sags just as bad. That's why I had to use some rubber inserts to even it out

So I was driving next to a stock MS3 today...I noticed the rear sags on it as well...I just thought it was just because our 5s were so much heavier...but it looked like it did it slightly on the 3 as well....dima, I was looking for the spacers today...the tire shops didn't know, I found a set on ebay...hope they're right...
 
Here are some better pics

Camber doesnt look too bad but i dont want to find my tires screwed up in a few months so camber kit and alignment will be done asap. Cobb rear sway bar is on as well and its great. Man it handles sooooo much better, but pot holes i used to glide over before i have to slow down for now or try to dodge them cause it hits them hard now.
 
Looks nice, I just installed my cambers today, was pretty straight forward, just the (2)17mm bolts...I guess the 5 is a little different from the 3, I used the 3's installation guide and I guess mine doesn't have that fuel monitoring box thing on the passenger side, so it was easy...the only bump I had was taking off the exhaust side arm. The exhaust hanger is right in the perfect spot to block the bolt from coming out. The solution was easy enough. I just pulled the rubber thing off the hanger and wiggled the bolt underneath.

Good info above.

With our M5 on MS3 springs, our camber looks way off!! I don't need an alighment to know that. Rear wheels sit like /./ \.\. So our adjustable rear camber plates were ordered this weekend off "another mazda forum's Group Buy". Good price for adjustable camber plates BTW.

I'll post picts later tomorrow.

p.s. so a cobb RSB huh... just might have to look into one of those. Will the MS3 bar fit our 5's? If I can get the bracketing, bushings, end links... should be a direct fit right?

That would be a yes. The Cobb rear sway bar on my 5 is for the MS3 and fit perfectly.
