Just bought some BC’s for my E36. Decided to take out the cheap Ebay since I’m getting more serious with the build. Haven’t driven the car yet but excited to see how they feel. Great vid guys
Great way to explain and show what the Fitment Industries website has to offer, One of the best channels out their for the car community. Can’t wait for that Cosmis Giveaway. I bought my shirt the day you guys Promoted the video, Biggest Subscriber Alert 🚨
Thats awesome man! Glad to hear your excited for the giveaway! Don't forget we are going live on Instagram at 6:00PM CST to pick the winner for the wheels!
An inverted damper is used for McPherson strut applications. Because the shock (strut) is a control arm and faces sideloads unlike in an SLA system. The benefit of it being inverted is rigidity. There's nowhere near as much stress on the actual shaft of the damper because of the external tubes taking the majority of the side loading. Heat has almost nothing to do with that. Cavitation of the fluid can happen from heat, but it's unlikely to be much different when moved up.
Just rebuilt my BR's for my Fiesta ST with a new damper after breaking my hex inside the top swapping out springs. So nice to not have to throw the whole thing away over a dumb accident.
Can u guys make a video on the best suspension for stance cars and a spring rate to ride hight chart. I want my car to ride an inch to an inch and a half off of the ground but i don’t know what spring rate is necessary for me not to scrape tooooo hard.
I was trying to decide between the BC DS and the FA 500s. I heard a lot of good things about the FA 500s and i was so lose to clicking that "place order" button but the price was just a little over my budget. Heard about the BC DS series and how great they are too. I thought maybe they'd be the same price or higher than the FA 500s but was pleasantly surprised at the lower price. Decided to buy them from Fit Industries and now I'm just waiting......
Cool vid can you do one about Megan racing coilovers if you haven’t I haven’t had the best luck with them but mine were pretty much blown from previous owner
Cool video but the explanations were not accurate. Inverted monotube designs are really focuses on a McPherson style strut because the strength of the additional tube is able to withstand the lateral forces of the upper control arm being interrogated with the strut without sacrificing fluid volume in the strut
I just purchased a used 2015 civic si from a dealership and it came with bc coil overs aswell as many other goodies on the car . How can I tell what model they are ??? This is my first car I’m a truck and motorcycle guy but I bought these fb6 so I can have a dependable daily .
I have a 2005 2.5rs, I'm looking for coilovers and I wanna go with Tein. I wanna get the street basis ones without the dampening, however, for some reason my rear suspension is super super slow compared to my front, and it makes me rub like crazy. (My wheels stick out of the fenders) Should I just wait and get ones with dampening or will the ones without stiffen it up by themselves and be fine?
Which model would I choose if I want a smooth ride on my citys rough roads while being able to have a nice aggressive stance but not frame banging low? Any suggestions thanks!
DS gives more feel. Haha. Non car guy trying to explain something he doesn't understand. DS series is a digressive valve shock. If you do any sort of performance driving you want digressive valves. These lower body roll and driving under braking. They increase cornering speed and braking distance.
i have a 2014 hyundai sonata se with stock suspension im looking to lower it just a little bit, to where there’s no wheel gap and i’m a daily driver but i don’t wanna go cheap on my car i don’t play that shit 🤣 i was just wondering if the bc racing coilovers would be okay to lower it a lil bit and a smooth ride for a daily driver like me
Shoot us an email at wheels@fitmentindustries.com and we can help you. I have a MS3 and I have been able to find some coils for my ride I know we have something for you!
@@btp420 thanks for your input man, I was looking at the tein flex A And the Br series is within the same budget. So hopefully I get them on this year!😁
Hey they have an option for a Lexus RX330... think about it... a Soccer Mom vehicle can be lowered by BC Racing... i could turn my moms van into a track ready vehicle thats also comfy
You know, I didn't know BC does the whole Peugeot thing, and apparently they're more affordable than lowering springs and dampers individually. Maybe I'll have to give these guys a shot after all. Gonna have to go local dealers tho, FI doesn't support obscure euro cars as expected.
