Depending on the ride you want you will want to check what rates will work best for you.

The advantage to the BC kit is we can spec different rates for you. Feel free to PM us if you'd like and we can help!

i have heard that both brand are really good. but my local guy only carries megan. but he is out of lp's, he has a set of ez street. so should i try to save $200 and get the ez street or not.

^ whyd you choose the ezs? But if you buy alot of parts like that from one place at the same time they will usually hook you up

well cuz the ez are have the softer spring for the rear for a much smoother ride, plus i really didnt need the xtra 21 points of damper adjustment for my daily driver. the big plus is that they are almost $300 less then the street-lp and the bc br series
