According to the Hotchkis website their springs are a 1" drop. Did you tell them you had a 4th gen camaro, not a 5th gen?
Also, get some 275/35's on the front, that will help as well.

Don't see why you would need to buy coilovers, just put the rear isolator back in and buy matching springs, problem solved.

Measure from the ground to the top of your wheel wells front and back and see how tall your car sits.

Thumbs up

OP: I was just reading through this thread and thought I would tell you those C6's look good on your car. Normally, I am not a big fan of them, but they look good on your car!
