Perfect for the rear of the Mazda3 '08 after discovering that both rear springs were broken. The car drives great with these springs installed and they have raised the rear end a little which gives the car a nicer look. The rear of the car no longer sags. If your rear feathers are rusty underneath and large chunks of paint are missing, then you've probably already broken off half a turn of the bottom and don't know about it. Installed these springs. The difference is very noticeable.
