Hotchkis says that it drops 1 1/2 front and 1 1/8 rear but it is actally 1 7/8 and about 1 1/2. It does depend on how much fuel is in the car. I am very pleased on how it handles and rides.

Did you install the springs yourself or had it done somewhere?

Looks very nice! Mine are on the way. I am also wondering if you did it yourself or if you had it done?

I bought the springs from a shop( Motor Sport Dynamics) and had the install them for $120.

Thanks for the update. Are you able to post any more pics up-close? Preferrably of the wheel wells to compare looks and visual drop on the front and back... plus any other angles you may be able to snap.Thanks.

The Hotchkis drop looks great! I haven't decided if I am going to drop mine or not yet, but the Vibe looks really good when it's dropped.Shadow Realm
