Dropped it because it was hot...

Just installed the Eibach springs yesterday so the car should settle a bit lower by next week. Free compressor rental at AutoZone!!!







Gotta get the wheels realligned later this week.

Bought for $198 shipped.

I mean are they the Sportline? The Pro-Kit don't normally appear that low, especially right after the install.

Oh I see...

Usually the Pro-kit drops about 1.25" and Sportline drops about 1.8" to 2".

Eibach only has the Pro-Kit available for the 6; no Sportline. It's a 1.5" / 1.4" Front / Rear drop.

Nice man. I really like the mazda 6es and with the drop it looks pretty cool. Speed bumps and dips will annoy you though.

I also love the car color. That cobolt color is really growing on me, and judging from how many I see on the road, with everyone else too.

Wow, looks very low for Pro-Kit, pretty cool. They don't call them Hibachs for nothing.

My H&R's settled. Actually, come to think of it, so did my Pro-Kits, my Sportlines, and Suspension Techniques.
