Bc racing coilovers go low?

[Akop]

Does anyone have bc racing coilovers on an s14? How do they ride, and do they go low? Thanks

Yea no one has a thread on s14s specifically, and no one says how low they go.

[zerodameaon]

They go low enough to make your car unusable in Cali.

[Akop]

Haha, alright thats what i wanted to hear!

[zerodameaon]

IDK how low you are looking for but I am pretty low on mine, granted this is S13 but S14s react about the same. I am tucking about an inch of 205 50 15s.

[Akop]

Damn thats pretty low for a small wheel like that. Well i have hks coils overs and im no where near maxed and i am tucking top of rim in the rear on a 245/40/18 and im half an inch away from rim in the front on a 245/35/18. So im looking for about the same drop

Save your money and buy PBMs.

[Akop]

Yea i was actually considering the pbm pros 8k/6k. I know theyre pbms and this is a stupid question, but are they even a little decent for the streets?

[zooopreme]

You plan on slamming your car, what do you care for ride quality?

[Akop]

Well, at the moment im slammed on hks performer coilovers, ride quality is smooth as fuck. So im trying to get something similar.

[zerodameaon]

I agree with Flip PBM will go lower, the ride may be a little bit worse though.

[Akop]

Oh okay, i dont mind. Because at the moment im on Hks performers, with 6k/4k rates. My car currently sits like this with 17" rpfs on 40 sidewall. So I would want a similar drop, maybe a little lower.

Wut?

Sorry i forgot to mention, that was on my previous set of wheels, mb battles

[fliprayzin240sx]

Well, 8/6ks arent that bad for the street. Honestly tho, if your HKS are 6/4s, doubt you'd find anything smoother than that since everything else out there are gonna be 8/6kgs on average. Only thing I know that are that soft are tein flex. Your other option would be having Fortune Auto make you a custom valved coilovers for 6/4 spring rates.

Also, didnt say anything before but 245/40-18s are ginormous on S14s. You're tucking it but those are oversized as fuck.

[driftsucky]

Are you just looking to switch suspension? Why the change if what you have now works?

[Akop]

Thanks for the opinion! Well my front coils are blown, and hks doesnt rebuild them and feal doesnt either. I actually wouldnt mind 8/6k rates. And also the 245/40/18 setup i had fit perfectly lol, it would just rub wayyyy too much on the rear inner wheel well at the canyons

[xoxide]

I'm gonna go ahead and put in the shameless plug for fortune auto coils as well. You won't find a better ride or better customer service. My 8k/6ks are super smooth.

[bigteddyted]

i ran a set of 18inch xxr's on those coils and they felt good. I have been running them for about 5 years and all good

I have BC Racing coil overs with 19in wheels. Car can go lower than this I just don't want it any lower.

What the fuck is that cancer on your rear window :wtf:

19's look like shit by the way...

I dont have any idea what the thing on the back window is called I didnt put it there and its no longer on there. I dont have many pictures of the car. This was the first one I ran across from when I first got the car that showed a ride height for the guy asking to see a S14 on BC Racing suspension.
As for the 19`s well thats your opinion. The car will be getting 17`s put on it ( havent decided what yet ) but looks has nothing to do it with it. I care about performance. Hence why it now doesnt have stupid 225`s stretched onto a 10in wheel and all tucked up in the fender wheel.

Heres a recent picture with out the plastic thing in the rear window for those bothered by it.
