I just installed some used hotchkis springs last night. Id say if the stock springs are a 6/10, the hotchkis are a 7/10, just a little lower. The ride is a little more firm. On my test drive, I was able to get the back end out on an off ramp that I usually plow through. So I say so far.

 

thanks a lot for the info bro

 

FWIW, they're known to blow out the factory shocks other than that I cannot comment on the drop or ride quality.

 

i use them. i dont know about them blowing out the factory struts, i've had them for about 10k now and no leaks yet. they have a good ride to them. now to low either. i also have a rear diff and carbon front lip and dont have too many problems getting into places.

 

can you post some pics of them on your car?
i wanna se what the wheel gap looks like

 

this is the best i have right now, they are from last fall. i dont have the motor in the car right now so its real tall in the front.

 

thanks thats perfect man
i think my mind is made up on these springs

 

pics look good, any feedback on eibachs in comparison to the hotchkis?

 

Used for 50k miles before getting coilovers. Loved the look and ride was very near stock gsr. Highly recommended for dd.

 

Here's a thread about them and a pic of my car with Hotchkis on the 2nd page. I also started a thread awhile back asking about the Hotchkis springs. I've never heard anyone say anything about them blowing the stock struts out. Most people that had them really liked them, especially for a daily driver. I've had mine on for about 2 months now and I really like the stance and the ride is very comparable to stock.

Have you ever considered Work or Swift Springs? I have the Works MR springs and love them. Not too low and rides like a Caddy compared to my BC Track Coilovers.

 

I have them, they are great IMO.

 

i have had them on my car for 2 years now.. love em
