those are really meh IMO..... there's threads by the thousands of the quality of ksport struts, but chancellor says he likes'em (he's riding on ksport air).

BCR's pretty good stuff, a lot of people swear them over Teins and a few other competative brands. I live 15 minutes away from the BCR distributor and I got the hook'em on'em so that's why I got mine's.

I know for a fact my friend's had MR coilovers for i'd sa 50-60k miles and they took a dookie on his LS430. I've yet to see how my BCR's feel [waiting on some air suspension parts still]

i posted up an answer to your question. I believe they sell for 1000 here on the forums, not sure. I got mine's for 900+ tax pretty much. I believe the bill was 900 even or 958 or something, it's been almost a year and I haven't even touched mine's yet (it's been modified for air suspension)

Do you notice any vibration with the BC? Also, what's the max drop that you can get out of it?

i've ridden in a civic with the BCR, it's not installed in my vehicle. You can expect no vibrations if you're NOT AWD. Only way you'll get vibrations is crappy alignment/tire package. Only partial reason why our cars steering is iffy is because it's more responsive due to the electronic steering rack instead of power steering like conventional cars.

With all that said, you can slam a set of BCR coilovers (and i'm sure of it even though its still not installed in my vehicle) to the ground and bottom out. LOL, so don't worry about how low these things get
