Thanks for the pics Hipnotoad - I Got the MazdaSpeed springs & shocks installed at the end of January and was curious about the upper coils touching when the car is on the ground.
I asked if anyone had noise because I was getting a lot of noise from the right rear. Mazda dealership installed, been back 6 times and got a new noise after 4 visits. Currently they switched sides (RR to LR ect.) now I have noises coming from both sides (rear). I don't know what to do & no one at the dealership or the Mazda tech line can figure it out!?!?!?!?!
Car is at the dealership again right now!

^ I agree with devildog. I have had them for a year and a half and I do get some noise from the back, but it has caused me no trouble at all. The only thing to watch out for is make sure the bolts on top of the strut towers are tightened AFTER the springs are compressed (car on the ground). If this isn't done, the drop will be off, but other than this don't worry about anything!
