if you plan on going pretty darn low opt for function and forms or stance gr+ not bc's

bc's don't let you lower the rear too much before having to take off a locking ring

^^ I don't have much experience with the locking rings, Dre, but is it perfectly safe to do it? I mean, do you run a risk of the coils adjusting themselves due to vibration or anything like that? Sounds kind of noobish to ask, but I haven't had much experience with coils.

Only reason I ask is because we were going to do this to my friend's car and he's lowered on Tein Basics. We've already cut his spring mounts in half but we were wondering if it would go lower with taking one of the lockrings off.

But as far as a smooth ride, BC is not too bad. f&f is perfect for me, i want my g slammed one day, and thats exactly what f&f are for. Plus they are smooth as hell when driving.
