I've installed those BCs that You're lookin' for

http://www.bc-racing.co.uk/vehicle-check.a...p;modID=96#info

For now I am really satisfied. Earlier I had Bilstein heavy duty dumpers with Eibach pro kit springs 30mm lower and that was too stiff but not low enough.

Now my car is 50mm lower than standard front and rear. Soon I will lower it a bit more.

I am driving on standard 16" for now (winter set) but soon I will put back my 17" OZ superturismo :)

Hey, sorry for going offtopic, but I've seen your pictures.

Do you use spacers?

No spacers at all. OZ Superturismos are 8x17 et37. I had 215/45/17 on them and they where rubbing plastic lining a bit, I sold those tyres and will probably go for 215/40 next

how is the handling with that drop and those coilovers ?

I have BC Coilovers and think they're great, handling much improved and adjustable damping is a bonus.. for £650 i would have thought u'd struggle to get more for ya £££.

Well, i also dropped my E12 for 50mm front and back, handling is really really good (but i have got KW coilovers)

Only when turning really hard, it rubbed sometimes with my Lenso alloys on (17x7, ET 42, 205/17/45).

Now i lowered it even more, 70mm lower then stock, with stock wheels for winter, but that's just untill spring, then my new alloys will be here, which are wider and bigger (ET 37).

So then i'll put it higher again ;)

Well my OZs are wider and I think I will have to change them with other wheels 7x17 or 7,5x17 with more appropriate offset, probably et40-45

I don't drive fast around town so I can't say much about handling in corners, but it's really comfortable when set to minimum stiffness, or soft.

Sometimes I drive on hard setup and I can't take smile off my face. It really hurts my "feelings" when I hit road holes :(

Well, if u want to stay that low, changing wheels will probably be the best solution.

I'm more going for jap stye things now, so that's why i'm gonna screw it higher again,

my new exhaust licks the road sometimes ^_^

About the handling in corners, sometimes when turing onto the highway, going to 180° sometimes here in Belgium :D

My KW's are just in between hard / soft.
