BC Racing coilovers?

[ARCS]

Evening folks. As per title, has anyone had any experience with these on an e89? I know a few members on here have used them on e85/e86's and were happy with them. I did have a set for my e85, but never got round to fitting them. Was thinking about getting them for the e89, so thought I'd ask the question here first before pulling the trigger.

Allegedly pretty good..a bit harsher ride than the Ohlins which was regarded as the top dog for street use..that’s no longer available…whether it’s worth the premium over other similar coilovers most people will never know..Bilstein B8s with supplex or Eibach springs or their turnkey kit is another option..the Konis if still available were well rated..

You nee to remove the rotating hub DSP emblems first. ..they’ll create havoc with the handling!

I have these on my 35i, easy to fit and set up, the adjustment means you can set them up to suit your needs, happy with the way the Z feels/handles on them

Pulled the trigger today on Bilstein B8's with Eibach pro springs.

I don’t think you’ll regret that, had this set up on my DSB 30i and it was much better than standard suspension and still rode nicely even on 19’s

That's reassuring to hear. Waiting on new top mounts etc to arrive. Hopefully I'll get it all fitted in the next couple of weeks. Then it'll be wheel colour change.

Would you mind sharing the cost? Definitely something in my e89s future I think.

I've considered these, seem like a very good value option if you fit them yourself.

If you're patient you can get the kit from Autodoc for around £600.

Tiglon basically hit the nail on the head.

I considered the B8/Eibach combo but the BC’s just offer more flexibility on set up, got the car to sit and feel exactly how I wanted it and I have the advantage of being able to adjust them to suit new wheel/tyre set ups etc going forward

How much was the BC kit?

Just short of a grand.

£900-1000 worth it though IMO
For the flexibility

It definitely looks a good bit of kit.
