About a month ago I adressed the boards for tips on where to find koni shocks and you guys did me an awsome favor showing me the best price online. Now im looking for the best deal possible on Hotchkis springs to pair up with the konis. Any info and input on these springs if you are sporting them is greatly apreciated.

Those Ksport springs arent comparible to hotckis's at all IMO........the Ksports drop like 2.3" after they settle, the Hotckis drop about 1.8" after they settle......depends what your looking for.............The K-sports are about half the price of the Hotchkis's though

Im looking for a clean drop, not much since im already running 255/55/18 tires and srt suspension so I only expect to drop about 3/4" to a full 1" from what I already stand at.

Then Id stay away from both and go with stock SRT springs or Mopar springs. Although the Mopar springs are not made charger specific....I believe the 300 ones that guys have used in chargers drop it about 1"

wouldnt my wheels and tires equal the same size and somone running 20's or 22's with low pro tires? I just want to elimenate fender gap. I've followed Sublimeon22's posts when he went the koni & hotchkis route and decided the drop he got would suite my car just as well?

I thought you were on stock springs and only wanted a 3/4" to 1" drop........if your looking for another 3/4" to 1" on top of the SRT springs 3/4" drop then I WOULD suggest The hotchkis coils
