BC Coilovers, Nismo rims, 275/305 Swagger!

So after receiving my rims from WISHIHADNAV (thanks) and BC BR coilovers from ERIC @ Driveline. Got it put on with more of an agressive tire combo 275/35/19 and 305/30/19.

Default BC Coilovers, Nismo rims, 275/305 Swagger!

So after receiving my rims from WISHIHADNAV (thanks) and BC BR coilovers from ERIC @ Driveline. Got it put on with more of an agressive tire combo
275/35/19 and 305/30/19. 15mm spacers in front 20mm rear. I will make an album with more shots and stuff, but just wanted to throw these shots out there!

first it was like this, but the gap in the rear killed me.

go the above parts and now it sits like this!




thanks for looking.

MORE SHOTS FOR REFERENCE HERE!

Looks great! Surprised the spacers worked out, would of thought 20mm would stick them way too far out....

rear is cambered in at 2.8 on both sides. IT DOES STICK OUT without cambering in. i could have taken out the spacers and would have been fine, but camber is my friend. thanks for the compliments guys.

i like it, i need to play with the adjustments more to dial it in, so i can't quite comment on it right now. BUT i have reached a setting which is quite decent, 17 front 20 rear. It bounces slightly but recovers quick, but like i said probably need to play with it a little more. In comparisoan to the H&R's though, i will say the H&Rs are the best way to go for a desired slight drop with OEM comfort. I do enjoy my BC BR's though, just working out the small things.

did you have the extenders installed? or did they cut holes in the plastic lining in the hatch?

if you make the damper settings softer does that make it more bouncy or less bouncy?

holes were cut in the plastic with the extenders placed in, if i make it soft, it wil be more bouncy, hard will stiffen the ride.

275 in the front? how does that change your car's handling? what's the front wheel's size? 19 X 9?
