Date Added: Thursday 21 October, 2004

Received the springs in good time from MX5 parts - good dservice as usual. If you are thinking of buying these springs to make your MX look cool, then go ahead as they look the business.....If however you live anywhere near speed bumps, ride on anything less than perfect roads or actually drive using all of the performance that even a standard MX can deliver and you regularly carry a passenger, then FORGET IT!!!! These springs are a liability on anything but the smoothest of roads (even managed to bottom the suspension on the M6 southbound near Preston!!!!!). I am now having to modify the front arches, as the tyres crunch into them when travelling on our (admittedly quite bumpy) Scottish roads, and despite passing an MOT with these on (with quite obvious damage to the inner arches) I very much doubt that the car would now get past scrutineering for a track day!

For poseurs and smooth roads only!
