Out of the blue i realized i'm getting old and wanted a smoother and more comfortable ride.

That, and get back to having a linear rate spring (the rear BC's aren't linear) while lightening things up at the same time.

So...







I'm excited to see how much of a difference this will make in ride quality and transitional response.

 

Very interested to see what you think of these. I am in the same boat, as far as the ride is concerned. My struts are deffinitely on their last leg and want to swap them out for something new. Was set on BC coils, but just recently thought about going with a set of struts paired with these or eibachs. Deffinitely let us know what you think.

 

i guess im not the only one feeling this way... especially now that im commuting 70 miles roundway twice a week...

 

@pattyballs, these are replacement coils for those that came with the BC-BR coilovers. I did go a step down in rates, from 12/8k to 10/6k. I haven't measured the BC coils yet, but these are supposedly lighter. The front is also one coil less than the BC's, with the same height. If you only plan on a spring/damper combo, try looking into Swift's spring-only upgrade. I've read many good things about them as well.

@nghiars, i feel for you, it really does take its toll, no?

 

500 mile drives tired me of my springs too lol. Glad im not the only one..

 

You're still older than me, Janik.

j/k

p.s. Quick update, the rear BC CO springs weigh 7lbs.

 

Quick update, comparison of the rear swifts with the rear BC coils.

 

Old fart and proud of it haha

 

LOL! You and me both.
