Just realized I had no pictures of the insane camber I got from these. I will take some when i'm at the autox.

Is it true that BC coilover creates alot of noise ??? I really wanted to get this for my 318ti compact... But I don't like squeaky noise... Do you know what causes this noise?...

I don't know where you heard that, but since i have had mine they have been very silent. Maybe some increased road noise due to the stiffness, but other than that, none. You can change the dampening to full soft also for daily driving and it will be much quieter and smoother. I have been running these things hard, made some minor adjustments and am so far very pleased with my setup.

Ok thanks... I've heard from my mechanic who is a guru on modding bmw's that BC had lots of noise clunking and squeaking noise... I really wanted a fully adjustable coilovers and found your post and pretty much sold on getting it... I'm just worried about the noises... any ways I'm going to search more about this rumors... thank you! :cool:

Pillow ball mounts can "clunk" if they use low quality bearings.

Something I just noticed, but is the lower rear shock mount a spherical bearing or a solid metal bushing?

pads
 

do you notice any difference without the pads? im thinking about taking mine out with my h&r's/bilsteins and ive heard both good and bad things from taking the pads out

I've taken mine out on the rear. It lowers the car slightly more but also creates more creaking noises. More metal on metal friction noise. I'll be putting them back in though, for the amount it lowered it it's not worth the added noise.

I'd just save up for some coil overs like BC Racing and do it the right way.

You'll have to excuse me for taking this slightly off topic but what are the benefits of the 328i sway bars? Or are they just necessary because your car is swapped? Also, do you run an x-brace?
T.I.A.

Anybody have a good recommended spring rate? Im thinking about getting the BC BR's and am trying to figure out which springs to get.

So how much did this cost you?

Did you go with the Swift spring upgrade or just stick with the stock springs it comes with?

For $999.00 shipped the coilovers came with 30 way adjustable struts, camber plates, new endlinks and some of other goodies. It would cost two to three times that much from KW, GC or TC Kline for the same setup.

Awesome post...thanks!

Any Info. here? Cheers

Looks great! Thanks for the post!
