Product Description
BC Racing Coilovers DS Series is perfect for street driving and occasional road course duty. With easily accessible adjustment knobs for fine tuning your compression/rebound and separately adjustable ride height, having a performance coilover system couldn’t be any easier. You choose how low or high you want your vehicle, no preset ride height here, and patented concave lower locking ring keeps it locked in. Ride height is adjusted by raising and lowering the shock body; this maintains the same ideal damper stroke at ALL ride height levels for the best ride under any conditions. The pillowball mount option provides the most available feedback possible from your suspension and to sharpen your steering response. All this while providing a strong, attractive looking coilover system.
The DS series BC Racing Coilovers use a large 46mm diameter piston in a 53mm diameter damper body to maximize oil capacity. As the damper unit operates the oil contained within heats up. The viscosity of oil changes as it's temperature varies which can lead to changes in the damping characteristics of the unit.
Features:
- Mono-tube Shock Design
- Digressive Piston and Damping Curve
- Satin Chrome Finished Shock Body
- 30 levels of Damping Force Adjustment (Compression/Rebound) Simultaneously
- Pillowball Mounts
- Height Adjustable via Shock Body Maintains Damper Stroke At All Ride Heights
- One Year Warranty
- Fully Rebuildable With All Parts Available
Technical :
- Spring rates 8 kg/mm front, 8kg/mm rear
- Lowers approximately 1" to 2.5" compared to stock suspension
- Coilovers use 46mm pistons and 53mm shock housings.
- Valves are constructed of special spring steel, which outperforms stainless steels and produces longer valve life.
- Valve stacks use a patented deflective system to provide more precise control.
- Patented concave lower locking ring, to prevent unseating
- Springs are made of SAE9254 high strength, durable steel. Compression tested at over 500,000 times with less than 5% deformation
- T6061 Aluminum utilized in spring locks and seats for high strength and lightweight
- Iron lower brackets on MacPherson struts to ensure rigidity
- Piston rods are constructed of highly polished steel to lengthen oil seal life and prevent leaking
- High pressure inner rod guide seals ensure a perfect fit for consistent fade resistant damping and long shock life.
- 2 step coating process utilizing nickel and chromium plating to prevent corrosion
You have three options when ordering. Besides the standard coilovers, you can choose to upgrade the springs to Swift items for an additional $320. Or, choose the Extreme Low option for a 1" lower ride all around, and the ability to run the ride height REALLY low. (Allow extra time -- up to three weeks -- for Swift or Extreme Low options.)
Note: If you are looking for the DR series, this is the SAME product, but renamed for 2018. DR was too similar to BR and was causing confusion.
Fits all 2015+ WRX and STI.
