Hotchkis springs owners
It seems like my car, with the factory WS6 springs, sit lower than most WS6 cars I've seen around. Now, either the 20 year old springs are too tired, or the previous owner did something to them. Now, I didn't want to lower the car with springs like the Hotchkis ones because the car already scrapes the exhaust Y against bump stops and stuff. Now, if the 20years have made the car sit about 1" lower than when it came out of the dealership, then it means that I should get thesame ride height with the Hotchkis springs.
Can anyone with Hotchkis springs please measure the height from the road to the bottom edge of the fenderwell for comparison's sake? I'd really appreciate it. Thanks

I have Hotchkis 1" drop springs.. I can't measure the distance off the ground right not because the car is in the air..putting new engine in, but the pic below should give u an idea what it looks like with the 1" Hotchkis spring drop
