They are a good suspension setup for the price. basically the same as FF type 2 or D2. You can also have them valved and get custom springrates to your liking so you don't have to have the super stiff ride if you don't want. several s2k's i know of are running them and no complaints yet. and with the comment of how long they last, all you have to do is send them back to BC, they don't rebuild them they just send you a whole new set to save on response time.

let me know if you want some.

I've got a mate running them on his 400bhp scoob and I was really impressed, a hell of a lot better than the teins he was using before and on the lowest damper setting I would say there were about the same a standard scoob and on hardest they are awesome. So he kinda gets the best of both worlds.

But he has only be using them for 5-6 months now so as Graham says I don't know how long they will last

Yeah, so did my old D2s - they had 36 settings and even on the softest they were way too hard for our roads :P

To me, they're just another budget coilover thats all the rave, then a year down the line horror stories will come up and everyone will slate them and move onto another budget coilover - but thats just me :P
