The Mazda MX-5 has been enjoying quite a long life
on the Japanese carmaker’s lineup. Long past are the times when there was
simply no competition for the miniature roadster, but its latest generation
still manages to hold up quite well in terms of sales. Unsurprisingly, H&R
couldn’t turn its back on the model.
The aftermarket suspension manufacturer now has quite a few upgrades in stock for the newest MX-5. A standard lowering spring kit costs € 240 and is optionally compatible with the Sports Suspension upgrade. The regular MX5 sinks 30 mm close to the ground on both axles, while the RF version lowers itself by 25 mm at the front and 30 mm at the rear. As a consequence, the open-top ride gains a sportier stance and becomes more maneuverable, especially in curves.

H&R has also designed roll stabilizers for the
Mazda MX-5. Customers may choose between a € 265 kit for the front axle or a
€ 495 package for both. Both should reduce rolling and rocking. If the above mentioned upgrades aren’t cool
enough for you, consider Trak+ wheel spacers (starting at € 126 per axle) and
Monotube height-adjustable springs (€ 1,314/set) that enable lowering in the
impressive 40 – 60 millimeter range.
