Okay I am thinking about ordering a set. I was wondering if you all got the extreme drop ones. I was thinking about going with 16k fronts and 12k rears with swift springs but what is the extreme drop option that figs has?

I believe for that they just pre-set the ride height to a lower level. Out of the box normal drop is something like 1" lower in front so with the extreme drop it'll be roughly like 1.75" drop. That is certainly extreme lol so I didn't opt for that.

Nice! While driving home from work today I seemed to be paying extra attention to the ride. I really can't wait to get these.

Order Update: I ordered a t-shirt too which they don't have in stock so they gave me an immediate refund and said they'd make it up to me later. I had a couple emails with them today since ordering to confirm specs and such and their customer service is top notch and very responsive.

@2ndGF how long have you been running these!! I made the mistake of going with cks coil overs with swift springs upgrade....(16k front 14k rear). I think 14k on the rear was overkill. With 24 way adjustment if i so much as go past the mid point from all the way stiff it became way too bouncy the softer I went. With this it doesn't even allow me to use the full adjustment of the dampening to find that sweet spot so I'm thinking about going with a different set up. Besides I unfortunately had a strut seal bust and on the front drive and Ive only had the coils on for 3-4 weeks so I'm pretty disappointed in the quality. Do you think for daily driving on most american roads and enough performance for an occasional track day or frequent spirited driving the BR series is the best bet ?
