I'm going with BC's. If the spring rate is to soft..., after a while I'll change the springs out with swifts.

As an FYI... if you decide to change them in the future you'll have to send them back to be revalved if the spring rates you're changing to are more than a +/- 2k difference.

Thanks! Going to order them this weekend. Should have my brakes buy then so I can do it all at the same time.

Here in Rust Belt, you can feel your fillings with a stiff enough spring rate. In sunny CA where the roads last???

just for some reference, i'm on Stance 14/10 and I think they are way too soft, i'm upgrading to 16k/12k springs. Hopefully that will help this.
