good to hear.. I've been contemplating a lot on which coils to go with since V3 is pretty much up there for quality and so is with the price. Stance coils if you want a really low drop. Seems like a lot of peeps like BC for the price and quality.

I would've got V3 if i had the cash of course, but BC is well worth it. I'm not tracking the car hard so..i saw no need to get the V3.

I'll do it for him . Well originally to adjust rear dampening you would have to jack the car up, drop the strut, change dampening, reinsert strut and drop the car. With the extenders all you have to do is cut a piece of metal out of the way on top of the struts to fit an extension. The extension enables you to change dampening on the fly. I'll post a pic of it tomorrow.

Ive had my BC coils for about 2 months now and everyday I appreciate them more and more. My rims and other mods have come and gone , but the coils are a must stay !
Like said above , im cornering harder then ever and i feel 50 times more in control then the stock suspension. Definitely taught me that coils are a must have.

Really it all depends on how low you go , and also how you adjust the *****.
My ride did significantly change ALOT ! I lowered it like 2 inches which is fairly standard and the first few days I could barely stand it. My ride was super firm and tight and you feel EVERY LITTLE TINY bump in the road. It could also be a result of having the ***** turned all the way to the hard setting but then again Ive tried everything.

Positives.. mainly the obvious..
you can corner at ridiculous speeds and almost never slip out. When I take it really hard to intentionally slip out , I feel SO in control.

Moral of the story , from personal experience the ride does downgrade comfort wise but if your willing to go for the much more aggressive and sporty ride its VERY worth it.

Someone asked about megan's i got them on now for about 5 months now. I love a stiff ride but i must say this is all it is lol it really isnt that good on the real world streets. It seems to disconect the tires from the road because it seems to vibrate on smaller bumps instead overtaking them. Tuning them helps a lot though and im still at it. Its also very bumpy even though i dont care but it gets uncomfortable for the people in the car. I then figured i should have gone with bc lol but its not that bad im still working on it
