The Hotchkis springs do not give a "raked" look to the car. The drop is the same front and rear (if anything it is more in the rear, removing rake from the car)

Hotchkis make very high quality stuff, no need to worry about that. They also eliminate the bounce from the car as well. I do however have to be VERY careful about scraping my front bumper (japanese Nismo full bumper) ... but its cool, I love the way the car sits.

Here is a pic, the slope makes it decieving, but the car sits perfectly flat to me. The front and rear of my car were just over a 0.75" drop once everything settled.

this one is a perfect example of the equal wheel gap F+R .... don't mind the dirty car or the hole in the front left of the bumper

 

Nice drop. Nice car!

 

i have stock 17's with larger tires then the stock one riding on eibach springs. i like the drop. i'll put up a pic or two as soon as my car is back form the dealer.

 

If my car was any lower the front bumper would be gone. There's these speed "humps" near me...they aren't bumps...they're like 6-8 feet wide, very gradual "humps". They are fun to go over at around 35 mph. because they don't cause a ba-dump thump and it's kind of like going through an intersection really fast where the cross road is higher than the one you're on.

Anyway...if the car was any lower I wouldn't be able to do this!!! LOL
And we can't have that!

 

Zivman, give yourself some more credit - takes skills to drive around with that kind of clearance.

IMO, Hotchkis does the job for my taste and driving needs.
Will be slapping on some 18" or 19" soon - but check out the gap with the stock 17"s
