Dang, some nice rides in this thread. I have the Hotchkis springs and the ride is great but they aren't low enough for me (1/2" front, 3/4" rear). Going to try the Sprints next. This is the only pic I have of the Hotchkis springs on 245/40-18, 275/40-18 tires.

C5TT put some spacers on, they'll look sick if you don't plan on buying new rims anytime soon

No they can go a lot lower actually. But good luck driving it anywhere any lower than that.

Its adjustable so you can set them to feel softer than stock or tighten them up to be very firm. You can also adjust spring preload independently of ride height and dampening force in the rear due to it being true coilover. I'll warn you though; true coilovers in the rear will wear the lower mount bushing on the spindle prematurely because it wasn't designed to carry that kind of load. If you are looking for no hassle, I would look into an OEM style coilover setup.

I am looking to reinforce the spindle and use a metal bushing in place of the OEM rubber bushing.
