Hotchkis Springs
I was wondering if anyone has these springs installed. I've only seen a couple of reviews for the FRS but none for the BRZ. Would appreciate any opinions on the springs. Apparently they are compatible with factory struts and shocks.

Hello BeRZed,
We are currently working on getting a BRZ in the shop so we can install the springs and take pictures. As soon as this happens I will get a review from the customer and let you know how he liked it. |

I have them on my FR-S and love them. I didn't like how most of the springs make the rear a lot stiffer than stock. These are perfect.

I am the owner of that brz in the pic and so far really happy with the springs. The ride has not been rough at all and haven't changed drastically my driving to prevent scrapping. Slowly I want to buy the rest of Hotchkis components. Thanks again Aaron and Mike!!!!
