That's what mine drove like when I first had the Hotchkis springs put in, there wasn't much difference in ride quialty But wait till they settle, then you may notice a differance or at least I did.
The drop on the front of mine settled a lot and if it would have settled anymore it would have been too much of a drop for the front. There is only 1/4" gap with a 245/35/19 front tire. The rear however never settled enough and looked like something from the 1970's LOL, so I shaved 1/2" off the spring mounts. Problem solved.

someone please correct me if i'm wrong. these are one of the few springs that don't require any adjustments/alignment? since the drop is no more than .7" in the rear, no harm done since everything falls within factory specs, right?
