Help finding coilovers for the X coupe!!!

I own an awd G coupe and i know its counterproductive to lower an awd car but i really would love to have a nice set of coilovers... my question to anyone reading this is after some research i found only bc racing, which i have no problem with... but is there any other options of coilovers for the X coupe? thank you!!!

BC is your only option for coilovers.

BC is good. That's what I have on for about 300 miles. So far so good, definetely seen an improvement in handling. The only thing is the instructions are in taiwanese (they are actually in english, but it's translated with google or something cus it's unreadable grammer/spelling), so PLEASE get them installed by someone who knows what they're doing lol : D

JIC Magic would be a good option too, but they are def more expensive. BC is also 30-way adjustable, so you get a little more control on dampening (although the adjuster on the rear coilovers is really hard to get to)

It's not a hard install, just confusing cus of the instructions. BTW I asked my shop to do the same drop as the eibach springs would have done since i liked the look on the X's that I saw (I think one of them was yours actually ).
