Are BC Racing coilovers another name for Buddy Club Coilivers? Is that was the BC stands for? Buddy Club?

Or are they two differnt brands entirely?

I've been on my BC's for about 6 months now and I have to say that I love them. My g/f who has a ruptured and herniated disk in her back says they ride very nice.

Just wanted to touch base here with the bc-r owners if you are still happy or have run into any quality issues?

I'm about to purchase a set but wanted to see how things are going so far.

Thanks!

I recently just got my BC's and love them. No problems thus far. Quality and ride are great. The dampening is nice because of the soft yet firm ride

I still don't get it!!!! after reaping the search button still no clear answer!!
I'm looking for a nice stance, daily driver, not looking for track usage maybe 1/4 mile once a year, quiet, and good comfort???
i get the point that it's always going to feel better then the stock suspension because your lowering the center gravity which will optimize handling. so i'm not chasing my own tail just want to be planted and smooth!!!

Bad954Boi im have to say either one you go with will be good i havent heard negative of either. i like bcr just cause i can rebuild them without waiting weeks for them to be sent out and returned back.

drive style notwithstanding, by the time you need to rebuild coilovers, you've probably moved on from your 2is already.

so basically the extra 2-300 bucks difference isn't worth it...
i would be fine with the megans!!?!!
also how is the highway noise?

It seems like a personal choice. Either pay more for a better ride with BC and the features they come with or pay less and get the Megans.
