The only downside to the Hotchkis is that it makes it difficult to compression load the front corner at lower speeds (< 40 mph) which generates some turn-in understeer. You can compensate for this to a certain degree by adding some front negative camber. At higher speeds it feels fantastic, very flat and planted, especially if combined with coilovers. The understeer is the only reason I don't recommend them for a stock car setup, but if you are lowering, adding coilovers etc. then it works out well as a package.
