The handling feels tighter on the highway on-ramps at high speeds, but all and all it's tough to beat the comfort and broad stability of the stock suspension sitting up high. There are concessions made but the overall gains are easily made up.

Also I forgot to mention that the initial break-in period is a little nerve racking but once you've tweaked the springs, adjusted your ride height, dialed in your dampening and waited patiently to perform a final (second) alignment, you will be rewarded! My experience post install was a little rough but I stuck in there and got to where I needed to be.

I feel like BC Racing make a quality product and are still building their brand. They will never match KW and the pricing reflects that. For someone like me who isn't tracking but wants to the benefits of a coilover at a reasonable price, it's a good balance.

Ok .. Thanks.
