Default B&G Suspension Srpings and Coilovers for xA/xB

Hi Everyone Im Mike From B&G Suspension.. Im here to announce our lowering spring kits and coilover kits for the 2004-up Scion xA/xB.

Our Spring kits offer a drop of 1.25" Front 1.25" Rear . All our springs are made with the same quality wire as H&R and Eibach. Same manufacturing process. Every Single spring is tested before leaving the factory. Lifetime warrenty.



...Starting late January 2006 We will be pre-ordering our 2004-up xA/xB Coilovers :
Specs:
Life time warrenty
Dual height adjustment. (which means go as low as you want and still have full shock travel and maintain ride comfort)



My Question to All of you with xA/xBs is would you want a preset dampening level or would you like 18way adjustable like our tC kits..

I am sure if you are opening it up to suggestions you will here a lot of people wanting adjustability for the price of preset dampening.

Is 3" the maximum drop B&G recommends?

(Beyond adjusting the actual spring seat) Can the coil-over be adjusted for more drop in the lower section?

What is your projected MSRP for preset dampening vs. adjustable dampening?

OK... if anybody saw what BG posted before it was deleted, can you PM it to me? Or maybe BG can PM it to me themselves. I am not sure what it said, but if it answers my questions I want to see it.

At this time im unable to say any pricing.. but the price will be very reasonable for a product with lifetime warrenty and with this many features..

As far as producing a spring designed forthe xB we only made a 1.25" drop.. the 2" which we have never sold under our b&g name.. were not designed for the xb. they were infact made for the toyota echo... and fit an xB.. Im sorry im not responsible for that.. since i have been at the company.. i have made major changes.. and those spring being sold is one of them.. please be assured while im here i will make sure each appliaction is designed for the specific car..

Dude. I would so get a set of those springs. My sportline springs are supposed to be a 2" drop all the way around, and Im stuck with a horrible rake effect. I want the box to sit level all the way around.
