In defense of the BC racing coils, I have the BR series and Ive gotten my car pretty low (I know im on 19's and I have a bodykit but my chassis is still scrapin). The fronts can def get you tucking but the rears can't unless you remove some collars. All in all, I would say get the stance coils if you want low and stiff.
And also, I've always wondered this but do coilovers have uneven-ness? I took off 1 collar on my passenger side to get the height I wanted but my driver side dropped the same height with it on the lowest setting without removing coils. Anybody have this happen to them?
Bump with some pics

Lookin good tony, the thing about uneveness is true if you're lowering the car with the naked eye(wich everyone does)....due to suspension compression and remember it's 4 individual c/o's that ur tryin to wrench seperately to make even.
on one c/o', the adjusting collar(s), spring height, lower shock body may all be different than the other 3 c/o's, as much as u eyeball or measure it off the car and think its right, once u go to put the c/o back on the car, it'll change
what I do is i usually like to count the threads on the shock body from spring collar to lower shock collar and then try to keep em all within the same spec.
if u want to redo it, u can do it right by weighing the car on scales

Kinda low.. I've lowered the back a bit more since these pics. The entire thing needs to go lower though, but I need to do something with tire size in the front, right now I have about 3/8" from the fender lip to the tire (when turned) in the front so it rubs when turning/braking hard. Any suggestions, current size is 245/35/19f?
I measured yesterday and I have 2.5" to the bottom of the front splash guard.
Spacers are coming in the next couple weeks to deal with the wheel sucked in problem
