Hotchkis H-sport lowering springs

I have an opportunity to buy these lowering springs at a good price. I haven't heard of anyone here running this suspension. Anyone have any info? I don't care if they are free, if they suck, it's not a deal.

They're a good spring. Hotchkis is a very good brand all together.

Well I bought them for $65 last night. Figured I couldn't get hurt with them at that price. Now I just need to find a good set of struts to match them.

Could always go with the Bilstein Sport Suspension that is made for lowering springs. Front right HERE, front left HERE, and rears HERE if interested.
