Not sure.. but he raised it about half an inch since then so he could put his Volks on, then he's gonna dump it again. We're going to work tonight, so don't wait up for us.. Unless you'll be up at like 2-4am PST. lol.

ok ok, let's see if I can clear a few things up. I am a former employee of B&G Suspension Systems.
The spring rates are posted on SL, do a search before you bash them. "looks cheap" - I don't even know how to reply to this without being inappropriate. The product is definitely not cheap. The quality is perfect.
Just because an 18 year old who has had his tC for 2 weeks has not heard of a company, does not mean they are not well established with an excellent product. Go do some research on VWvortex if you want to know something about this company's quality. The older, more experienced VW/Audi crowd LOVES them. They are also very big on the east coast where one of their warehouses is.
As a former employee, you might assume I am biased, but I LOVE these coilovers. I am in no position to make any profit off of these in anyway. I just respect them greatly for the quality, the customer service, and standing behind their product 110%.
ZPI uses B&G's.
------
As far as reviews go, WOW. These are amazing at the auto-x tracks, so I don't know where this kid gets the idea of bashing on them. I can't say enough good things about how impressed I am with this product.

but looks doesn't mean you should go buy it cuz you like how it looks..but there's a lot of features that i liike on these coilovers. what do you people think is this a smart buy?

I got a reply from their rep and he said 6kF 8kR, or the other way around, can't remember.
And to Ronny, does it look like I own a VW, have I ever said anything about me owning a VW? So why would I ever step foot inside the VWvortex forums (other than to look at the 5x100 wheel classified section) I went to the B&G site to do some RESEARCH and all I got was an unfinished page, at first I thought it was my Mozilla at first but it was the same with my IE. So what am I supposed to think? I've owned a 240sx, an Izuzu Rodeo and an Integra before and I've never heard of this company.

Seriously, yeah, I wasn't saying you have to own a VW/Audi/BMW to view some feedback. I am just saying B&G is very well known in that community... and I recommended you familiarize yourself with product reviews based on people who judge the quality for handling/performance rather than making an inexperienced review based on aesthetics. I personally think they look great, but if you don't, that's your thing and I have no problem with that. The company is a performance suspension company and I love my coilovers.
