based on all the reviews ive read they are both good

i personally own BC and can only speak for BC but between the two, BC is better priced, that might be a determiner of which you get.

My BC-R Extreme drop Kit goes LOWWW and is stiff enough that I dont scrape anywhere even though im considerably low.

Try riding in a car with Zeal coilovers.... then you'll realize how horrible a BC coilover is.

Regardless of coilover brand, if you have dampening settings and you don't dial it in right, it will not ride to your preference.

I rock Teins, but I will not knock on any other brands that I don't know about it. Find a friend ride there car ask them about it and make your educated choice.

I recently bought some stance coils from THmotors for a great price. Put them on, set the dampers in the middle of the field (8 clicks iirc), did a 4 wheel alignment, rode pretty good. Car was sitting about 1 finger above stock wheel on all 4 corners. Drove around for a bit, and they broke in. Rides like a cloud now. Love mine.

I've had d2 and bc, mine rides great with my bc coils and I'm pretty low. But I daily drive it, no taking it to the track or whatever, just a 30 mile a day neck breaker haha!
