Hotchkis = H-Sport
I have them and they are good, not too harsh. My only complaint is that they don't lower the car enough for my liking.

nope, they are 16's, but in 7.5" width.
dont worry, even RandyWebb claimed my car was running 17's when
he was doing my pulley a few years ago.

I can get some pics, I swear though, one side seems to be nearly stock height still. I need to figure out what is going on!

Here's pics of my car on H-Sports and 18s. Mine haven't sagged one bit either and the drop was about an even 1" per corner. Yet another reason to post pics haha..

The h-sport springs have a mind of thier own when it come to the drop they provide, myself and two other friends with cooper s have them installed and we all seem to have different drops. also when all run 17 inch wheels, weird
