Please include in your post:
1- Stock.. But taking recommendations
2- Same as 1..
3- Amazing
4- Cant decide on offset..
5- 96k
6- Holdin up fine
7- Got the stockers, but am planning Volk GT-C 20's 8.5 Inch wide
I want to know what the offset would be to get the wheel flush with the fender. I been lookin around and seen that 42 mm is too 'sunk in' and I have come to the conclusion of about 32-35mm will be what I am lookin for. But, wanted some outside perspective. Thanks

finally got me some bc co's the other day! kinda late coming in on this but all those with or had the bc br with 10/8 spring rates what were the best dampening settings for you guys for DD purposes with the emphasis in comfort? Mine are set pretty much right dab in the middle but a confused on what settings and combos will do what generally. Say I do softest front/ hardest back etc...my car has about a 1-2 finger drop on just stocks rims...can anyone chime in on this? i used to be on stock shocks with stechs so i'm used to having to tolerate the bouncing but maybe i was expecting night and day difference...what's your guys experience?
maybe its me or something but doesn't seem like dampening the back soft/hard makes much diff...i think turtle said this too...also can i tinker around with the preload on the shock to alleviate some of the rebound/bounce?

Hey there gang,
Long time no speak! It is winter here so I am waiting for the spring to become part of the BC coilover crew. Like the rest of us I am get a bit crazed when it comes to researching and spending my money. Now, for the possible good news. Those of us with G35x's we have been dying for front sway bars. I hear the G37 fronts will work but would like someone with more knowledge than me to weigh in. I have been making a ton of calls trying to figure out this question. There is a great deal of buzz at Hotchiks that they are working on a sway bar for us. Yeay!!! it should be out by Aug of 2011. Anyone have any other input regarding the swaybar issue?
PEACE!!!!

Hey guys. I was just searching for lowering kits for our sedan on google and i came across a link for eBay for Megan Coilovers. Which one would you guys recommend getting. The BC or the Megan. I know some of you have the BC Coilovers does anyone have the Megan ones. I'm looking to get them ASAP so after winter I can install them. Thanks in advance for any advice or opinions given.

Thanks. As of right now im going to go with megan street coilovers. I've seen what the look like on a G in person and I like it. As for wheels I've decided to hold off cause I can't decide which ones to go with since im very picky. Since no wheels I will be adding 25mm spacers too.
