Okay so the time has come to place my order for coilovers i have wanted for the past six months. But it seems like nobody has BC racing coilovers in stock with the spring rates of 12k/10k. Should i just order the regular BC racing coils with 10/8k spring rates? Will the difference in spring rates even be noticable?

You guys know how it is especially when it comes to car stuff, worst comes to worst i'll just HAVE to wait those two weeks.

i ordered the bc coils with 12/10 and replaced it with the swift 12/10 springs. The BC coils springs are brand new.

Where did you order from? And does this void the warranty? Thanks sam!

Are you planning to get the BC coils with 10/8 and replacing it with swift 12/10 ? Maybe you can buy without springs and get my BC springs, they are 12/10.

I got the coil from our vendor, there are quite a few vendors selling the same coils. Mine came from circuit.

Well, Here's the thing. I originally planned on getting BC racing coilovers with 12k/10k spring rates. But as i started checking around everyone said it'll be about two weeks wait. Me being the impatient person i am wants them sooner! Now im just thinking of buying the instock BC coils with 10/8 and then getting stronger springs.

Do you know if it voids the warranty?

Also how hard was the install?

If you really want 12/10, then just wait. 2 weeks is nothing to be honest. Find something to do and it'll be 2 weeks sooner than you think. Don't be impatient at all. I waited 8 weeks for used coils, but I was willing to do it because it was well worth it

It doesn't void the warrenty, BC is actually giving you the option to upgrade to swift racing coils. If you want both the 10/8 BC and later want to switch to swift 12/10, you can interchange it anytime. The would not know if you changed springs or not anyhow.

It takes about 5 minutes to change the springs for each coils.

I would just order it with the swift spring preinstalled.

I think you made a good decision Coats! There have been people here who've waited much longer than two weeks for parts or even their entire car to come out of the shop.
