Re: those with hotchkis springs come inside FYI:I have a friend with these and they lowered his t/a more than his bros LT1 t/a with a pro kit <img border="0" title="" alt="[Wink]" src="gr_images/icons/wink.gif" /> They say 1 inch but happened to be more on his car.

Re: those with hotchkis springs come inside I have stock shocks with my Hotchkis springs and the ride quality is quite good. Its actually a tiny tiny bit stiffer of a ride than stock. Barely noticable to me really. They do alot better than the Pro Kit does in the ride quality department.

Re: those with hotchkis springs come inside i just put mine on with slp bilsteins. I highly recomend this setup. Only downfall is a pretty harsh ride, but its worth it

Re: those with hotchkis springs come inside Mine are on some bilstein revalved shocks. The car rides great with these springs. It is a great improvement over the stock shocks. I believe that you should get some shocks that are revalved for the springs you use and how you drive the car. The springs do lower the car more than 1" and I knew that before I got the springs. The reason why I went with these shocks was because I liked the stance of the cars that had these springs. Someone correct me if I'm wrong, but I think that the slp bilstein springs are revalved for the springs they go with.

Re: those with hotchkis springs come inside Anybody using these with Long tube headers? If so how is the ground clearance? I have 18" Z06's all around and need to lower the car some. I just don't want to mess up my FLP's. <img border="0" title="" alt="[Wink]" src="gr_images/icons/wink.gif" />
