I believe that Hotchkis sells directly from their HQ in California. One of their sales reps used to post here a while back and was offering a discount to GenVibe members I think. He posted info about STB's about a year and a half ago in this forum. I forget his screenname, though.

Found the member's name. It was J.C. and he works at Hotchkis Tuning. Shibaman talked with him when buying his sway bars and seemed very pleased with their product and service.There's a sticky thread at the top of this forum that lists titanmotorsports.com as a Hotchkis dealer that was also offering GenVibe members discounts on Hotchkis goodies. Info on who to contact is in that thread.Link to that thread in case you haven't browsed it yet: http://forums.genvibe.com/zerothread?id=6077

Bummer. I wondered why he hadn't been on here for so long. He used to update us once in a while.

Yeah, that is a bummer, because I want to get some springs soon too and was thinking about Hotchkis. Anyone know of some other good retailers selling them at good prices?
