Personally I like the Hotchkis set up and fits the bill perfectly for those who want to lower there car without going to far. IMO this set up with the 265/35/22 tire would be perfect. I can't imagine having any issues as far as rubbing or the rolling fenders. The Hotchkis really cleans up the wheel well.

MAN, it was a lot of work alright... didn't expect it to be as involved as it was, but worth it? Absolutely!
The look on my face was nothing compared to the look on fatchance's face when he saw the wheels pulled and the difference between my sway bars and his! His comment was that the stock looked like "angelhair pasta" compared to Hotchkis. To tell the truth, I was surprised when I saw the diff as well, just seeing the numbers doesn't do justice to the improvement and it became all the more obvious why I enjoyed that 8,000 ft. mountain "twisties" (for NR) drive so much more.
Now I regret that I didn't shoot pics of the sway bars... sorry, I was pre-occupied! I'll try to get some pics from Hotchkis of stock and theirs side by side.
