Thoughts on Raceland Coilovers?

1mseries · 03-08-2023, 08:06 PM

Hello,

I just purchased my first e82 (2011 128i) recently and i'm looking to get coilovers. I'm considering Raceland coilovers. I want to keep costs low for this build because its my daily. Thoughts? are they garbage? Am I better off spending $300-$600 more for BC, Bilstein, or ST, coilovers?

Thanks!

Absolute junk. Stay away. Unless you want to bounce around until the bolts come
Loose

Save your money till you have enough for Bilstein. I went with the PSS9 kit.

I've had friends recommend the BC BR kit but I've been in both Bilstein and BC equipped cars and the Bilstein kit feels like a real car should. The BC feels like a teenagers car.
