1" Hotchkis springs on 2011 SS Vert

Will these springs work? The part number is 19110 and the website says they are in stock even though I heard they don't make them any more. Has anyone used these on a convertible? I have seen pics of Verts with Hotchkis 1" springs but I am not sure if it is this part number. I did research on here but everything was old. Thanks in advance.

They can be installed but due to the extra weight in the rear of the convertible the rear tends to end up riding lower than the front when you do the same height all around. We have found that BMR 1.2" in the front and 1" in the rear is the perfect combo for the convertible. It ends up with the low level stance people are after. Below is a before and after.
