Default BC Racing BR Coilovers *REVIEW*

I recently upgrade from tein s techs springs to the BC Racing BR Coilovers.. WHOA what a difference.. the install was a breeze and it even came with dampening extenders for the rear so you can mount on the rear strut bar. the ride is amazing! in the pics below i have my ride height set to about half way slammed, you about 2 more inches to go with full shock travel... i like to keep the dampening around 18-20 out of a 30 click setting, but even at full stiffness the car isn't jumpy and really uncomfortable at all. PLUS the coilovers cost almost HALF as much as the tein flex/monoflex. they use great materials and they are fully rebuildable also they ARE NOT noisy!!! Pete and the guys at BC Racing are top notch and would definitely recommend these to anyone and will put on all my vehicles from now! Thanks again guys and SORRY this took SOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO long!

I have been waiting for a review for these for some time. I'm glad there is finally an official review thread. This pushes me closer to purchasing them. Thanks.

So what your saying that you can lower them another 2 inches and when you lower them you will somehow gain 2 an extra 2 inches of up travel!!! I don't know about your, but my BC's didnt come with a fender and inner fenderwell relocation kit. Not to mention the ground clearance, mine are dropped 20mm, 2 more inches lowered and all that suspension travel you say you have is meaningless when the chassis hits the ground.



Please think!!!
