H&R Sport Springs for the Mazda MX-5 Roadster
Mazda’s bestseller MX-5 also convinces in the latest version. The Japanese have lost the unique selling proposition with their small roadster in the meantime. But competition is good for business!
Speaking of enlivening: The way the H&R engineers take the agility of the two-seater to the next level with the now developed sports spring set is worth all the honours!
The springs are precisely tuned to the standard shock absorbers. They lower the vehicle’s centre of gravity by approx. 30 millimetres (MX-5 RF : FA25 / RA 30mm), thus reducing body movements and improving the steering response. This makes the MX-5 the definitely more agile when cornering. Added to this is the more pleasing appearance that suits the MX-5 perfectly. The driving comfort does not suffer by the way and remains absolutely suitable for long distances.
