Product Details

In this box, you get one Koni STR.T (Orange) rear shock absorber. This shock is designed to give your 2014-2018 Mazda 3 a noticeable improvement in handling and ride control. If you're looking to get a bit more out of your suspension without going to a fully adjustable coilover setup, these are a solid option.

The STR.T line from Koni is known for offering a significant step up from stock shocks. They use a nitrogen gas-charged, twin-tube design that helps prevent foaming, which means more consistent damping performance, especially when you're pushing the car a bit. The orange finish is a classic Koni look, and while it's a cosmetic detail, it shows you've got a well-built part from a reputable brand. These shocks are tuned to work well with the factory springs or mild lowering springs, providing a firmer, more controlled feel during cornering and over bumps.

When installing these, remember they are sold individually, so make sure you order two if you're replacing both rear shocks. It's always a good idea to check your existing mounts and bushings while you're in there, as worn components can affect how even a new shock performs.
