beemn 50 Report post Posted October 27, 2014 Just want to find out if anyone here has any experiance with xyz coil overs with the rear spring and shock in one or the bc gold br series with the inboard rear springs on their e46. Im not sure which to go for, small budget, the car will be for circut/road. I think the xyz will be easier to adjust the rear ride height with maybe more ride height adjustability, and bc can rebuilt..what else is there to know?

Rgvkiwi 10 Report post Posted November 24, 2014 I bought a set of XYZ for my M3 and am very happy. Talked to Evan and worked out that the road set wasn't suitable and the race only would be bad on road so chose the cheaper race / road set...it is a bit firm on some bad roads but very good on most roads....(though I cant remember if I have adjusted to full soft yet). I am running a heavier front sway bar as well though. I believe on track they will be pretty good maybe even great, I feel they are good value and handle at least as well as the Koni Race set in my MX5 turbo race car.... Evan was very helpful and as such I intend to purchase more from them and also get some car work done in their workshop... Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Toast 117 Report post Posted November 25, 2014 I'm running "std" coilovers in my e36 and i can't fault them, adjustable rebound, rebuildable, body adjustable & cheap, what's not to like? Also they're made by greddy so you know the quality is good. I would recommend checking them out. Also they have measurements machined into the shock so adjusting the height accurately is a breeze Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
beemn 50 Report post Posted November 25, 2014 Cheers. Ended up with the BC Golds. They look pretty good. In the end it was more convenient to get them local rather from Tauranga. Hopefully fit them this weekend when the car gets back from being caged, then need to try and find tires..none in the country till Feb in my sizes Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Driftit 2093 Report post Posted November 25, 2014 Quite a few of the guys in the series are running XYC Milan. Including their Brake kits. But really the only main difference is the support. They guys from Tauranga will help out where needed with set up and spring rates. BC... Well it is just some importer selling some shocks. Just make sure you give them a good check over before the warranty runs out. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
