Default Hotchkis Springs Pics!

Just installed my hotchkis springs and kyb agx shocks last night. Figured I would throw a few pics up so people can see the ride height. My car is filthy but it wont stop raining damn Washington. I have the rear isolators out as well. I will post up some better pics when the weather clears up.

I think you'll like the rake better, if you took out the
Hotchkiss rears and put back the stockers, hose mod
style. I did.

My sig pic is with Hotchkiss and isolators. Needs a
butt-tuck, which I got by stock/hose.

It rides pretty good. Its obviously stiffer but not to bad. The car leans quite a bit less. I like the springs a lot! As far as the ride height goes its growing on me how the rear sits so low but I do still have the isolators so I may put those back in. And yes some 17s maybe 18s are defiantly needed after my S60!

looks like your rear wheels are too far back in the wheel wells, also....need a set of adjustable LCA's to pull them back forward some.
