I have been offered BC Racing BR complete coilovers with custom spring rate (10kg and 12kg) and an spc rear camber kit.

Keep in mind this is Canadian currency, if I were to order from the states you need to add $250 (duties and conversion) I will bracket the add.


I can buy these BC coils for $800 (they have roughly 18,000kms) delivered to my house and probably get cut a deal on the rear camber kit.

I can buy Megan coils for $900shipped. Then pay 13% and probably another $40 for brokerage fees.

Should I spend the extra 300 and buy lesser coils just because they are new or should I buy the $800 BCs and camber kit and call it a day.

 

I say new ones cause people will always lie about mileage

 

I say go with New, i bought mine with 10k miles on my BC's no problems but who knows how many it really had on it.

 

I offered him $850 for the coils and camber kit. If he says yea, I'm taking it. If he counters, I'm buying the Megans.

 

I say you need somebody on this side of the border to help you out with swapping parts and storing/selling the old ones

 

^ don't we all?

 

Have u considered function and form coils?

Price wise they r between the Megans and BC. Quailty wise I heard they are better than megans.

I've had mine on for a few days and I like them.

 

newwwwww
get stance or ksport!! lmk if u wanna get ksport.

 

^advantage of stance over BC to justify price? They are just for looks really.

 

stance coils drop you to the ground, which is very important to me. pretty much as low as u wanna go

 

You ever been to Canada?

How often do you visit San Francisco?

 

lolol nope, and only been to frisco once haha y??

 

The hills! lol

Where I live it's impossible to leave my house and not hit at least a 40 degree hill within a mile.

Not to mention the pot holes, poorly filled pot holes that stick outta the ground 2 inches etc.

I am basically looking to completely eliminate tire gap, I still want to be able to see my tires though.

Does anyone have specs or a formula as to how far the wheel will pull away from the fender as the camber becomes more negative/ the car lowers.

 

What sizes tires are you planning to run? To completely eliminate tire gap you'll have to give it a nice drop.

I thought I remember reading somewhere that 1 degree of camber was the equivalent to about 10mm.

 

the wheels are;
F;19x8+35 R;19x9.5+45
F; 225,35 R; 275,35

My next tires are going to be slightly thinner in the rear. I plan to go about 2.5" I'm trying to avoid buying the expensive front camber kit and only buying the rear. I might just deal with burning front tires if it's not too bad.

What about some used MDU coils off a very trusted forum member?
