sprint springs on oem shocks
 
I just order a set of Sprint springs that should be in next week and I was wondering if it would be ok to ride on oem shocks for about a month in a half.

Thanks people I know I'm going to put some koni yellows on real soon tho I just want to have my car bouncing all around while I'm driving I believe that look so tacky to me.

Like the suspension geometry and components on the Mazda3 is the same as the RX8 :rolleyes:

My oem shocks are still okay with my oem cut springs since November of last year. That's almost 7 months since then, and you will be okay with your aftermarket sprint springs with your oem shocks for a month and a half. Just drive your car very slow on speed bumps and such, and you'll be okay with it. One of my friend here in Vegas, Mike, has sprint springs on his rx8 (the one who lowered my cars), he used to be a club member here back then (Mikeluvs8), until he was banned from this site.

Anyway, just know how to drive low and your suspension parts will last longer, i know i did. Good luck.
