Review on 🚗 Bilstein 19-119526 Twintube Shock Absorber: Unmatched Performance & Durability! by Sean Carter

These will not fit a 2007 Mazda 3 S rear without modification. As you can see from the photos, the bottom bushing of the bracket that the screw goes through is shorter than the factory one and this made the bracket sloppy at the bottom causing rattling. I've already swapped the A-pillars for Bilsteins and would like to put the rears on them, but unfortunately they just don't fit. A friend of mine suggests making a washer to take up the play in the bolt, but I'll just try a different brand of shock instead. Update: I'm returning them to Revain and using Monroe's instead, they're cheaper and 100% compatible with the 2007 Mazda3 S. The ride improved after I replaced the factory rear brace. The car currently has 73,000 miles on it.
