Default Same old question

I'm sure this has been posted before but I can't find anything on it. I'm tryin to decide between BC coilovers or Ground Control. I know on are running both and I was curious about any input.

Can I ask why you want coil overs?
Will you be adjusting them?
Will you be corner balancing them?
Just wondering...

Looks like you've been thinking about it for some time.

Hahaha yup I was tryin to find that but couldn't. As far as balancing them I was going to a shop for that to get it set right. A big part is the camber adjustment.

That's good. As long as they are going to be set properly.
I think too many people want coil overs just because it sounds cool.

Camber plates are part of coilovers?
We're pretty limited to what is available for the rear.

Ya wanted them so they can be set properly for the car and be a good street/track set up. And for setting the rear I was looking at getting the peices and having them welded in. I'm doing the whole car over but doing it right this time lol.

I know what camber plates are.
Didn't know they were part of coilovers. I've only seem them as a separate item.
