Question Frequency of maintenance on BC Racing Coilovers?

I’m curious as to how long BC Racing Coilovers last before the internals need to be replaced. How many miles are people getting out of them? It probably it varies quite a bit depending on everyone’s driving style and if the car is tracked or not.

Has anyone done the maintenance to rebuild or replace the internals on BC coilovers with new cartridges? From what I understand, the new cartridges are roughly $90 a piece and involves removing each coilover to do the rebuild.

It will vary from car to car, there are too many variables to give a solid mileage.

Just drive on them like you would any suspension. If they get soft and floaty or leak for some reason it's time to rebuild
