BC Racing Type BR Coilovers

[BigBurch422]

Who has 'em? Who loves 'em? Who hates 'em? About to order some, but wanted to know how people who have them like them.
I'll just be dailying them, with some aggressive driving mixed in. Only plan to lower it like 2.5" from stock.



Inb4usethesearchnoob! I searched, but figured this would be easier and straight to the point.


Gracias in advance! :msmile:

From what I've heard, all coils in that price range are "comparable" In that price range I would look into megan street just due to the straight arm design, it'll save your tierods and steering rack from stress.

Had them and loved them.

The BC's actually have a straight arm design also, btw.

i have them on my car now and they freaking rock. the level of dampening is perfect and the construction is solid. you can also order custom spring rates if you feel the need. I would recommend them

Do you happen to have a part number for the straight arm design?

Here's a picture of the coils when I first received them last year. I don't have pictures of the coils on my car. But I can take a couple pictures when I take off my winter tires in the next couple of months.

The coils have been on my car since right before Christmas. Took a trip to Florida with them and I was super stoked not to be bottoming out on every little bump. Actually a fairly decent ride. It was a little bouncy at first, but I feel like that is settling down or I am getting used to it. I have the front set at 10 out of 30 as far as stiffness goes (30 being the stiffest) and the rear is at 15 out of 30.

I have tried all the way soft and it is as plush as a lowered ride can be. I have tried all the way stiff, but that did not last long because it was pretty fucking harsh. Overall, I am satisfied with the purchase. The car is more fun to drive (especially in the mountains) and it does not bottom out. I am looking to lower the car a tad more, but need to make sure I can still get in my driveway. I need to roll the fenders and get a better alignment as well, so I can put the Rotas with 225/50 rubber back on.

Hahaha. I do care about aerodynamics. I was just getting ready for a trip to Florida from Georgia for Christmas. I had me and my two girls, a weeks worth of clothes for everybody and Christmas presents back and forth. No way it was gonna make it without the roof rack.

I have actually taken the roof rack off now and have a replica Mugen grill and spoiler on the way. I will try to put the rack on only when I need it. Once summer comes it will probably remain for a little bit. I didn't really like the height of it all once it was up there, but it is hard to argue with the functionality of it.
