I interpreted taking a torch to my springs as just sarcastic input, nothing more. However it is scary to think there are those that attempt that kind of thing....luckily Im cheap, but Im not easy.
I run eibach/bilstein on my Porsche and, while a completely differnt driving experience than the F, I do think its worthy of a try on the F as well. Thanks Sam, appriciate that input.
Matter of fact the input on this thread has been exceptional, appriciate the time and patience of all contributors.

That looks pretty good Sam. Im not sure if those spacers on the rear will work out on mine, I can barely get a finger between the tire and fender lip. Love that it kicked the rears out but not sure Ill have the clearance to run them...

I run the KW x Greddy coilovers that came with 15k/10k spring rates. Definitely made the ride a lot better than the 08 suspension and I'm lowered(slammed to be honest about it lol).
Didn't really cost much more than BC for the price I got on here from ModinJapan in the vendor section

Agree with the above. GReddy/KW from MIJ are much less than advertised MSRP and I trust KW’s valving all day compared to BC’s for the same price.
I do believe you can dial in the BC’s especially when mated with the Swift springs, but the moment you enter preload adjustability into the mix you need to be quite suspension savvy to know what you are doing.
The Greddy’s I daily two clicks from full stiff and rides great. I may go Öhlins some day but for the price I’d be tempted to go bags and it ride like a Cadillac since this car will always just be a point A to B vehicle, a fun one at least

Why do the greddys have lower spring rates? I would be concerned if planning to track it. I’m surprised they are so much lower than the recommended rates for the BCs.
