Love my BC's and for the price, they're a deal, but I want powered by max's now. They go low, ride stiff, and are priced pretty well. I've heard nothing but good things about them.

To be honest i dont understand what exactly ur askin for i dont have pics but i can tell u BC coilovers are good ive been on mine for almost a yr and i love my ride. they are smooth and allow u to go low my car is dropped about a lil more then 2" and got it about 15 stiffness aka the middle since they are 30 ajustable. not to bouncy nor do they squeek or give me any kind of problems i have a friend that has megans and not to down grade megans but he even said my car drives better then his all day. hopefully this helps u out.

As southern gent said I too am getting powered by max coilovers (PBM). I just sold my kw v3's to do so. They should be here Friday and ill take some pictures, but I had them on my 240sx and they were the best coilovers I've ever owned. I've probably tried 5 different brands of coils. Check out their website which is hard to use lol but it is

One major difference on the stance that you have to look at is the stance are now Inverted style and offer improved performance with a minimal loss of height adjustability.
