Default BC Coilovers and Wheels are ON!!!

Well I went ahead and went with the BC Racing coilovers and I couldn't be happier so far. And the work Euroline type N's. Took some pics with the Iphone just to get them up. After a detail job next week ill do a photoshoot.
Oh and the BC's ride very nice. 10k front and 8k rear.

The BC's ride great with these spring rates.

arent the BC's dual adjustable? i thought they were? like u can lower the bottom perch..without messing with the spring height so u can have full shock travel at a dumped height
