forreals, he is the reason why i sold my tein s-techs for a set of these.

but yea get hotchkis, you wont get has much as a negative camber compared to s-techs. just make sure you plan on getting aftermarket shocks in the near future.

Go with hotchkis! as far as i know, these springs doesn't have issues. there was a thread which says that some tc's with s-techs on have problems with their cars being uneven.
