BC Coilovers... 5k or 6k?

[dynamics13]

I read the review on the BC coilovers by loop, and i see mcheddadi said he was gonna get the 5k springs on them. my question is who else has done the 5k springs? How is the ride on them compared to the 6k? BC says they are 6k/7k, so did you get the 5k/6k, or 5k/5k?

yeah I posted followup on that, I got the stock rates like everyone else since they finally told me after making me wait more than one month for nothing that they couldn't do it...get stock rates. they are MORE than comfortable since they are adjusted perfectly with the dampers

Ok im a noob to this whole suspension thing and was wondering can you use the eibach springs and coil overs or is it more of either choose to go with the eibach or go with the coil overs.

Thanks for the answer in advance if anyone is able tell me this.

"Can" and "should" are two different things. Yes you can, no you shouldn't. These are adjustable height coil overs so drop springs are unnecessary.

Thank you for reading my review. If you have no experience with stiff rides or coilovers. I suggest getting the lower rates. The 7k spring rates can be harsh for certain types of roads.

You will need to choose either the springs or coilovers.

I would go with the recommend rates. Possibly going with a lower rate you have have a higher chance of bottoming out your coilovers due to the short shock travel it already has.

i went with 6kg fronts and 8 kg rears... I'm happy with the ride. I went with 8kg rear to help with that independent rear suspension sag. I always have 3 passengers in the back along with a full trunk.
