If your drop is even half of what the H&R Coils are, be prepared to have a (silly looking) negative et because a flush wheel will probably rape your fenders.

If you lowered a cx-5 even half the distance between the current h&r spring and the stock tire, if you don't have a negative offset, you would probably hit the fender on potholes or bumpy roads.
Brydon is not the go to guy for getting parts from us, he is the head engineer. He worked with the OP on getting a set out before they really are available.
We will have the springs available towards the end of the week. On our shop Cx5 the rear camber was not out of spec after installing a set of the springs but we did need to get the toe adjusted on the front which is normal for any lowering springs. I will have to double check on the front camber but I believe it was not far off.

Don't know where that picture came from, but it sure as hell won't be that radical a drop!
I know I like the look with the 19" wheels. Something like that is not practical you would most likely need a air bag suspension to achieve that look not to mention roll and pulling of the fenders and maybe removal of the fender liners. But still it looks cool even slammed Miata's look cool but not practical.
Will these be sold on the forum through a member or listed on CorkSports website?
Problem is, most of the camber loss on a CX-5 comes from the rear when lowered. Even more so with rear seat passengers or cargo load.Any update on the from camber angle? There is a front camber bolt available on the net.

Hmm some of you will like this . This ones r on coilover though
That just doesn't look practical based on the shape of the wheel well.If I had either of the 20" (any 20x8.5 or more) wheels I have on that setup they would be at a huge chance of hitting the bottom fender, and would most definitely scrape the inside wheel well in a sharp turn. I just don't think that looks good with those wheels and tires, it looks like an overloaded car with bad shocks. You would need to make the coils mega stiff or have wheels with a super low profile tire or a low offset (low offset would look lame) to avoid tearing that fender up.Hmm some of you will like this .

Nice instructions the pictures are helpful.
