Description
The 2018+ Mazda 6 is a great-looking car inside and out. The Koda design is breathtaking, but there is just something a bit “off” about the Mazda 6. Its just too tall! The team at CorkSport Mazda Performance has a solution with the Sport Lowering Springs for the Turbo 2.5L Mazda 6. The lowering springs were designed with the enthusiast in mind by providing a spirited and comfortable ride with a 1.00 inch Front Drop and 0.75 inch Rear Drop. Spring rates increased 25% & 45% over OE, respectively. #ZoomZoom!

The CorkSport Advantage
Performance Handling
The CorkSport lowering springs improve your Mazda 6’s cornering ability by lowering its center of gravity and stiffening the suspension. This reduces body roll in hard cornering which gives you the confidence to enjoy that backroad. Plus, we stiffened the rear springs more than the front to reduce understeer when at the limit.
Style & Comfort
Gain a big style boost with the CS lowering springs. 1-inch drop in the front and a 0.75-inch drop in the rear provide exactly what the new Mazda 6 needs to stand out from the crowd. We accomplished the new lower height without compromising daily driving comfort. While it may sound like a lot, the 25% stiffer front springs and 45% stiffer rear springs ride great and fit well with the OEM dampening, while providing more feedback to the driver for extra confidence in the corners.
Design, Testing, & Validation
We tested a number of spring rates and lowering heights to determine the best suspension setup for your Mazda 6 2.5T. The natural frequency of the suspension with the different setups was also analyzed to optimize ride quality and handling. The final setup of 3.8K front springs and 7.3K rear springs are fantastic whether you just want the look or are all about handling.

Fitment & Usability
As with all CS lowering springs, these are an easy install directly onto the OEM suspension components. The only modification is trimming the bump stops to make up for the decreased suspension travel. The conservative drop in ride height keeps your bumper safe from driveways and ensures your OEM shocks and struts are well within their operable length. You may notice a slight rake to the ride height. This is to ensure the car sits level and not too low, even when loaded with additional passengers or your mother-in-law in the trunk!
Materials & Manufacturing
The springs are manufactured from high tensile strength spring steel to ensure long lasting quality and consistent performance. In addition, the springs have an OEM style black powder rcoating to ensure durability and rust protection.

Great mix of stiffness and ride comfort. Rear is still too high as you don't notice much of a drop. Rear noise from time to time that I have yet to be able to get rid of. Working with the CS team but this shouldn't be happening.

Great lowering springs. I've been in some great set ups and hacked set ups and for the price this can not be beat. They did a great job fixing body roll on a sedan this big and the height difference is perfect. still space in the rear for trunk compression, and the wheel wells are filled out as close to perfectly as function would allow.

Best $500 (Springs and Sway Bar) I have could spend on my 2018 Mazda 6. Completely transformed the character of the car. https://www.mazda6club.com/threads/corksport-lowering-springs-and-sway-bar-review.441369/#post-5054771

Rides nice; just stiff enough to be noticeable. Wish it were a slightly larger drop: maybe 1.25"/1.0" Either way, it's still far better than stock.

I'm less than 100 miles in with cs lowering spring. Rides good, very little, little firm than stock ride. Off the back you can see the front is lowered but the rear still look like the same height. I think the rear spring might have to settle in. I have given 4 star maybe corksport could've have done 1" in the rear instead 3/4." I got this spring with the rear sway bar and it has reduce the understeer a lot making this car a little funner to drive. Just want to say Corksport is my first go to, for all my Mazda aftermarket parts and great customer service. Keep it up!

Just got these installed and did a bit of casual city driving and can already feel the reduced body roll. Can't really tell much of a difference in the spring stiffness except when going over speed bumps so CS did a great job on finding that sporty/comfort balance. Can't wait to do some spirited driving on them. Coilovers next? :D

Just right. Great ride, car looks better but I can still drive in and out of driveways.
