BC Racing Coilover Options
The BR Series coilovers are BC Racing’s entry level coilover and come packed with features including:
- 30-level dampening adjustment
- Up to 3 inches lowering (extreme low option available which lowers up to 5 inches)
- Front adjustable camber strut mounts (on most models)
- 1 year warranty
- And a lot more
Perfect for the daily driver or road car that sees occasional trackdays.
DS Series
The DS Series coilovers are similar to the BR Series but they feature a special digressive damper which gives more feedback and feeling to the driver. They feature:
- Special monotube digressive dampers
- 30-level dampening adjustment
- Up to 3 inches lowering
- Front adjustable camber strut mounts (on most models)
- 1 year warranty
- And a lot more
Perfect for track days and autocross events.
RM Series
The RM Series coilovers’ main feature is the inverted monotube damper (on McPherson strut vehicles) which has a much larger piston shaft that can handle higher lateral loads for longer periods of time.
This means the dampers don’t suffer from fade during intensive driving and there is less unsprung weight, making these coilovers perfect for track days, hill climbs and tarmac rallies.
Features:
- Special inverted monotube dampers
- 30-level dampening adjustment
- Up to 3 inches lowering
- Front adjustable camber strut mounts (on most models)
- 1 year warranty
- And a lot more
ER Series
The ER Series coilovers take it a step further with large external reservoirs both front and rear, which allow for 30-level independent rebound and compression adjustment on the dampers.
The external reservoirs also allow for a higher oil capacity which allows heat to dissipate faster during extended intensive driving sessions, making these coilovers perfect for drivers who want to be able to dial in their suspension setup independently on the compression and rebound to fit their specific driving style and performance requirements.
Features:
- Monotube damper with linear, twin piston system and external reservoirs front and rear
- 30-level independent compression and rebound dampening adjustment
- Up to 3 inches lowering
- Front & rear adjustable camber strut mounts (on applicable models)
- 1 year warranty
- And a lot more
HM Series
The HM Series coilovers feature the same inverted monotube shock design with linear valving system as the RM Series, combined with the external reservoir dampening system of the ER Series, giving you independent compression and rebound adjustment.
The external reservoirs also allow for a higher oil capacity which allows heat to dissipate faster during extended intensive driving sessions, while the inverted dampers allow for less unsprung weight and less damper fade during intensive driving.
The HM Series coilovers are perfect for McPherson strut vehicles that are regularly used on the track.
Features:
- Inverted monotube damper with linear, twin piston system and external reservoirs front and rear
- Swift Springs as standard
- 30-level independent compression and rebound dampening adjustment
- Up to 3 inches lowering
- Front & rear adjustable camber strut mounts (on applicable models)
- 1 year warranty
- And a lot more
ZR Series
The ZR Series coilovers are the top spec coilovers offered by BC Racing and pretty much the ultimate performance coilover.
The main feature is the 3-way adjustable dampening, with individual settings for rebound, low spring compression and high speed compression.
On vehicles with McPherson struts, they use inverted monotube dampers with a linear twin piston system, reducing damper fade during intensive driving and cutting down unsprung weight.
These are a full track spec coilover for drivers that want full customizability and the ability to dial in the perfect setup with no compromises.
Features:
- Inverted monotube damper with linear, twin piston system and external reservoirs front and rear
- 30-level independently adjustable rebound
- 15-level independently adjustable low speed compression
- 12-level independently adjustable high speed compression
- Swift Springs as standard, with custom valving to match specified springs
- Front & rear adjustable camber strut mounts (on applicable models)
- 1 year warranty
- And a lot more
