Default Hotchkis Sport Suspension

Here's a spy pic of Hotchkis prototype drop springs on an xB2. The drop is 2" all the way around. Absolutley awesome ride quality and height. Stay tuned for their sway bars!

I love hotchkis parts (had them on my old S4). I have been waiting for hotchkis to come out wit some springs for the xB. When will they be available? Any pricing?

No clue yet on avail date but I assume the pricing will be around the same as 1st gen xB's. Not positive though.

I don't need the drop, but definitely interested in sway bars if they can be used for stock height

I'm hoping they produce the TVS kit, seems like a better option than the TRD. Does their TVS kit also have a strut tiebar?

I believe that the TVS kit just includes springs and sway bars (front and rear). But I could be mistaken.

I wonder how the stock shocks and struts hold up to these springs long term?
