Default Hotchkis spring owners! do you SAG?

For those with hotchkis springs for more than a few months... have you noticed any sagging?

I've been trying to decide between these, the eibachs and the RSRs on my '03, but have been completely turned off to the eibachs due to sagging.

Do the hotchkis SAG with time? I like the manufacturers stated drop, but probably can't afford to go lower (another reason I don't want the eibachs too) with the roads in my area.

NO quality spring should sag over time. Tein, eibach, H&R, hotchkis, etc should not sag.

I run the hotchkis and they have been the same since day one. Droped about 1 finger in the front and almost two in the rear (9/16" front and 3/4" rear advertised)

Too new to comment, I only have like 4k miles on mine. I assume you're looking for 03 owners who've had them for a few years.

In any case, hotchkis springs are so cheap...even if they sag, you could get new ones. (But I doubt they will sag.)
