Question Has anyone heard of or installed BC Racing coil overs?

A friend of mine has them in his Viper and swears by them, they are also available for the 911 Turbo for around $1,200. I personally want to install KW's or PSS10's when I get the car but just out of curiosity does anyone have any feedback on these for the 996?

They are supposed to be on par with Ksports. It depends on the intended use if they will be good for you. I rode in a friends car with Ksports and I think they are better than my H&Rs. All the die hard German purist types hate to hear that, but it's true. But I don't know that they will be better than the KWs. But can't argue with what you get for the price.

I actually have them on my car right now. One of my stock fronts went out and bought some used with real low miles for 650.00 thought I could not go wrong. They turned out pretty good, was able to lower the car and installed them with some tarett top mounts in the front. It was just supposed to be until I got something better but the car feels so much better that I have lost my motivation to buy the Olins that I wanted. They could use some heavier rate springs if you spend a lot of time on a roadcourse, but even there it's much better than stock. I have a friend who is a automotive engineer and owns a performance co that makes suspension parts for gm products, he was aware of the brand and the factory that made them. Said they are one of the better ones in that price range.
