Default CorkSport Mazdaspeed 3 Springs

CorkSport in pleased to announce the addition of the CorkSport 2007+ Mazdaspeed 3 Lowering Springs to its line of Mazdaspeed 3 products!

By replacing the stock springs with the CorkSport Lowering Springs, the center of gravity is reduced on the Mazdaspeed 3 providing a quicker turning response and overall crisper road feel. It also has the added benefit of creating less wheel gap which gives the car a performance appearance and edge over the stock springs.

The CorkSport Lowering Springs reduce ride height by approximately 1.2” in the front and 1.0” in the rear resulting in improved handling and a more aggressive stance. The linear spring rate creates a consistent and predicable driving experience, all while maintaining excellent ride quality for your Mazdaspeed 3.

Crafted from high tensile strength spring steel with an OEM finish to ensure long lasting quality and performance, this lowering spring kit is durable enough to offer quality performance for ages to come and priced at just $209.00 to offer CorkSport customers a cost effective way of improving the handling and look of their Mazdaspeed 3’s.



Retail price on the springs is $209 for the set of 4.

I've ridden in one of the test cars and I had to double check that the springs were on the car because it rode so nice for lowering springs but at the same time felt sporty.

I have never lowered a vehicle so forgive me for the newb question. I'm assuming fenders would need to be rolled if on stock wheels?

No rolling the fenders unless you have something different going on for wheel fitment.

Fsds can't be lowered.
When they hit the progressive bump stop the internal valve opens wide thinking you've hit a high frequency bump in the road, trying to smooth it out. Ok if it's actually a bump. Not ok if you're loaded up in a high speed turn and all of a sudden you have no damping. The stock ride height borders on being too low for fsds.

I know FSD's are not adjustable. Koni specs FSD's to work with the Eibach ProKit springs. That is what I was referring to.

I think that was a while ago when they still spec'd the 4040's for our car.
And I know for a fact that they spec'd the prokit for the regular 3.
Our car is already much lower than the regular 3.

Springs don't make a car "floaty". It's the shit stock dampers not being able to keep up with the springs that cause that issue.

Which sucks. I'd be all over the CS springs if I hadn't just put my FSDs on.

That has to be a recent change, as everywhere I looked said OK to use. I think it even says on the box...oh well, back on topic. CS Springs look sweet!

I know these are new but has anyone done both springs. (HR or Corksport) I can get a brand new set of HR for 240 shipped and Corksports will be 238..

Any thoughts

Well, since these are just released, search for H&R reviews.

Testing spring rates is a little weird from what I have been told. It seems there are several different ways to do it and not a set industry standard.

We are going to be looking at testing stock, CS springs, H&Rs all on the same equipment and the same measurement methods so there will be data to look at.

For now all I have is a ~25% increase in spring rate over the stock springs.
