Opinions on BC Suspension?

Hi,

has anyone ever heard of BR Racing Suspension?

I heard they are very good and not too expansive since it is pretty new.

Set of 4 coilovers for an E90 would be 1250+tx.

Anyone ever experienced those?

Here is a link to their website :

I have BC on my other car (Infiniti FX). For the money, they're pretty good. Damping is good and very adjustable, ride isn't bad. It was a lot better than just lowering springs. However, they're not nearly as good as the KW V3's I have on the 335. The BC's tend to blow through travel much more quickly and the travel isn't nearly as controlled. With the KW's, the ride is very controlled, hit a bump, feel a quick thump and that's it. With the BC's, it's more like hit a bump, suspension goes right through it's travel, then stops, then rebounds, then the damping controls it. As I said before, it's not bad, but it is less controlled than KW. Of course it's 2 different platforms, but on my Infiniti, the BC's are slightly undersprung and underdamped. They're like half the price of KW's and I'd say 75% as good so the value is there.

As far as KW3's ..

They would be as good as kw1s then or same result ? Only advantage you can control damping vs v1s you cant ..
