Question about BC Racing coils.

Im on the market for coilovers and somebody just posted a thread selling a used set of BC Racing coilovers which I only hear good things about.
Obviously the rims handle well and are great performance wise but my concern is whether or not they go low enough in the rear?
I'm into tucking the tires (19 inch rims) and I'm wondering if they can go low enough in the rear. I guess you could call that being slammed.
I've also read around that some oem style coilovers can be converted to true-style coilovers which in return can improve comfort and drop the rear even lower than oem style.
Is this possible with the BC's?
Any pictures of somebodies car is with a maxed out rear setting would be appreciated.

BC's will go so low your car wont move. It is possible to upgrade from OEM to 'true' style you will need a new spring and lock collars.

Really? I've been reading around and a lot of people were disappointed by how low the rear maxed out with the oem setup.

There are two types of BC oem setup.

1) Large spring reusing your stock spring mount. (older version)
