hey guys wanted to see some pics posted of your hotchkis lowered Z's and hear about what you think of them and/or any issues you may have had with them (tire feathering ect.)

 

yo ill post pix later but the drop aint all that... the spring are exelent for the price... i also got the swaybars on and i love the ride... not too tight and not bouncy at all.. ..

 

yeah I want a very slight drop. Just enough to compensate a little for the wheel gap in the rear. Hell I would be fine if the front wasn't dropped at all. I don't want to be scared of speed bumps as I've stated before

 

I was in the same boat as you...now keep in mind I still have the stock wheels and have only had mine on a few weeks. Hotchkis supposedly drop more in rear than front. Some report more "settling" over time, but I noticed the drop in the front but not the rear. If you like the front where it's at, you might consider cutting the rear spring isolator...there is a thread on it somewhere.

 

My brother's car:

Here is another good thread for you:

I would recommend them.

 

Nice! what offsets are those? Got your specs from another thread:

 

are those hotchkis? those are my exact rims. Were there any issues with rubbing or anything? what about tire feathering and camber?

 

Yes, those are Hotchkis springs. It's not even close to rubbing, but he has the conservative 8.5/9.5 widths. He hasn't mentioned anything about tire feathering or excess camber so I assume it's ok.

 

I just got 19x9.5 and 19x10.5 rims and hotchkis springs on the way.
Anyone have trouble aligning it to spec?

 

I have the Hotchkis springs with 19x9 and 19x10 wheels, the alignment came within stock tolerances/spec. The only thing I don't like about the springs is that they are heavier than stocks.

 

The front is not low enough for me.

 

anybody got pics of the same springs but on 19's? thanks...

 

those are 19's aren't they nate?

 

Oh ok, cool.

 

Not a Z, but I can tell you they ride great in daily driving. They work great in autox too. My first set of linear springs, but I'm liking them so far, after about a year or so.
