what are the best lowering springs for 2012 Mazda 3 hatchback?

[bryanalexandr]

Hey guys Ive narrowed it down to two brands of springs. Corksport or eibach sportline? Im going to be running 18x8.5 +35 rims and I don't want it so low that the tires rub the fenders. Anyone with suggestions or experience with either of these brands would be very appreciated.

My vote is for Eibach since I feel like they're more reputable. With that size wheel, you should make clearance... Should... You also have to consider your tire width to clear your fenders. Or you can just roll your fenders and not worry about it lol I have a 2014 lowered on Megan Racing coils and my wheels are 18x8.5 +43 in the rear but I will rub if I hit a dip or something. When I had 255/35 tires, they got shredded. So I'm stretching 225/40 to make clearance. I'm not too too low. I still have about a 1.5 finger gap between the fender and tire. I'm planning to roll my fenders soon though. I want to go a little lower.
