about 2.5 months ago I had an Alk spike. Topped out around 12.5. Since then pretty much all of my SPS have browned out. I stopped dosing and slowly brought alk back down to 8. What are the odds these corals make any kind of recovery?

Some people run their alk at 12dkh, so I'd say yours should be ok. Are you sure that spike is why they browned? Has your nutrient levels or lights changed?
