if i buy the eibach pro kit springs for my mazda 3 four door will i have to buy anything else like struts or camber links or anything else that has to do with the suspension? sorry i'm a noob to this stuff but if i just put the springs on will it be fine with an alignment or will i have to put some other things on as well?

thanks

 

I had Prokits on my 3i sedan. Rear camber ended up right at the edge of within specification (-2.1 degrees) after the drop. I put tons of mileage on my car, so I opted to also get the camber links which put the car right back at stock (-1 degrees). More negative camber will increase the wear on the inside edges of your tires.

BTW.....I loved them. They rode great, handled great and were just the right amount of drop. Low enough to make a visual impact, but not so low that it became a scrape machine.

 

what camber links did you buy and how much did they cost you. also if i don't get the camber kit how much sooner do you think my tires will wear out. i only have about 3000 miles on the car and still have original tires

 

With the camber links and regular rotation my tires (wear rating 300) lasted ~40,000 miles. I really can't estimate how much faster they would wear without the links.

I bought the Mazdaspeed camber links used from a guy, can't remember how much they were though.

 

i got my mazdaspeed camber links through a certified mazdaspeed dealership for $200 about three years ago. the price may have gone down since, or you could try your luck finding them for a less expensive price from another source.

 

thanks for the info guys! i will definately check into getting the camber links when i get the springs
