Getting Coilovers
I'm thingking to get coilovers for my 2010 is250 RWD w / 18x8.5 F & 18x9.5 R . Now I'm on H&R springs which lowered 1.5" F & 0.8 R .
I like the front lowered with a finger gap between tire & fender but the rear still lil to high ( 11/2-2 fingers gap ) .
1 : If i want to buy the BCR coilovers , just buy as is or Do i need to get stiffer springs rate ?
2 : I dont how how much drop it will be if i want a finger gap between so Do i need FRONT & REAR camber kit ?

(no swift springs for me) I went with 14k front / 10k rear.... but a) I have an AWD, which weighs about 200lbs more in the front b) the standard rates of 10k/8k are said to be a bit too soft by some, but others like it!
Circuit motorsports (a vendor on here) seems to recommend 12k/10k as a good setup.
As for camber, if you're not lowering that much you should be good without.
Its unique for everyone: depends on the final resting height, wheel offsets, etc.
