Default New Hotchkis Springs installed (no pics, yet)

I installed my rears a few weeks ago, currently the rear is 5/8" (.625") lower than stock. The fronts have only 50 miles on them, installed today and they are 3/8" lower (.375"), I am sure they will settle slightly.

The lowering is perfect for my style. I will take pics later.

I'm very pleased with my Hotchkis springs that I install a week ago. I got a little over 3/4" drop in the rear and just got to 1/2" in front. I agree with the lowering, subtle but definitely noticable.

I really like the ride, more firm but a lot less harsh. Surprisingly, I found the sways (installed a couple of days ago) in the med setting front and rear really didn't make the ride much more rough. Great overall package.

Good to see people putting these on. Have the springs and anti-sways here ready to put on next week! The ride characteristics sound nice.
