The Hotchkis LOOK awesome. It's a great stance for the car - especially if you get some wheels with a decent offset (though be careful you don't go too far and have to deal with rubbing).

Progress probably would have been a more performance-related drop. Hotchkis are a bit too low to get any performance improvement from them - even though they're stiff as hell.

ya i agree with you ack154, as i stated, im going to be going with 18s on it, the wheels im getting are going to be pink/white, tastefully done though...i dont let hacked up ____ nor bad looks fly in my house! lol, but ya it is settling in lower than we had thought it would, it has a really nice stance now! planning on them settling more as well.
