I was wondering if i need an alignment after lowering springs are installed? I got an alignment and the back end of my car like floats around when i make sudden movement of the wheel. I have skunk2 springs which droped the car 2" all around.

The weight for a 3 is obviously not 50/50

Camber links are a must for coil overs

Not an MS3, just a regular 'ol MZ3, on Tein 'S' springs with Mazdaspeed camber links and RX8's. The car didn't have an alignment after all the work was done, and hasn't had any abnormal tire wear issues.

Wow, that looks great! Those RX8 rims are perfect on the 3!

Are you on stock struts?

At the time that pic was taken, the car was on the stock struts. I've since installed Mazdaspeed struts and have mixed feelings about them. Firm-stiff ride, maybe a little too stiff for my old ***.
