any1 else running a similar set up with different / similar springs?

i wanna see if you all rub or bottom out! and low you are!

Lantis

SO i had gotten the BC racing Extreme Drop.
this was on the lift straight out of the box.....

I had to raise the fronts about an inch and a half since my car was basically immobilized being that low.
so here was the finished product. I do have to cut the frame so my upper balljoints stop trying to tell me knock knock jokes every 2 seconds. Other than that a smooth ride. I believe im running 10/12

Did you get the V1 or the BR version?

I'd like an answer to this too.

How does the BR differ from the V1 other than it has the camber adjustments?
I'll need some camber to the front but does that adjustment give me anything that I couldn't get with other suspension parts e.g. UCA/camber kit?

In another words is it worth paying more for a BR if I don't need the camber adjustments?

currently running BC now for 2 years and rides good.

I have extreme drop 14/12k slammed all the way to the ground

If i had to do it again, I'd get 16/14.

Lutkis

So I guess you have BR's. Is it worth putting extra money just to get the camber adjustment?
I think I'll go with 16/14 then. I assume they are compatible with the original shocks and doesn't need shorter shocks?


I just noticed this was two years old thread and Lantis just bumped it up.

Im looking into BC's as well. In for the info! I was thinking on running really stiff. 14/12 is what I was going to run...but it seems to me everyone goes stiffer. Im killing myself for getting Megans 8/6...never again.

Lutkis

Lol those are pretty soft. Even the BC's are stock 10/8.

What dampening level do you guys have yours set at?

Aristo722

After more research, Im gonna go 18/16k. Now just to come up with the funds to buy them.

I am glad I saw this thread, I was just speaking the guys at BC racing and was planning on going up to 12k/10k

Thinking now of going 16k/14k, have always used Tein HA's on my other rides, but am willing to give these a shot.

also running the same spec from bc with extreme drop...it does ride awesome especially with the front rcas. its pretty stiff for other cars but considering this car almost weighs 2 tons its pretty comfortable. my wheel setup is at 19x9.5 +9 and 19x10.5 -3

BigHead805

How long have you been running 18 up front and 16 in the rear? Did you noticed any sagging afterwards?

Thanks.

i ran it for about a year, now on air with those very same struts. umm it took about a couple days to settle but no sagging, i also ran them full stiff at the very last click on the coilover
