Fixing to order a set of bc extreme drop coilovers.Plan on maxing them out on drop. What else are you aggressive wheel guys using? Lca or better to go with uca? And what else would u guys recommend? Spring rates?

I'm on stock wheels. LCAs are a most. I need them bad, but I'm waiting til I buy new wheels to get them. I chose 8k spring rates. While I am what some people claim as slammed, but only dropped 2 1/4". I'll raise it up an inch whenever I get wheels. I have pics if you want, just ask

It depends on what you want to achieve.

Extreme Drops are great. I'd highly suggest getting them with Swifts, they greatly
improve ride quality. Anything around 10k is a pretty good spring rate. In general,
all of the coilovers around the $1k price range are pretty much the same. They will
all most likely have clunking from the sway bar end links, and dampen pretty much
the same. Extreme Drops will go the lowest out of the bunch though.

If you want to fit aggressive wheels, I'd suggest UCA's first, if you want to remove
camber, LCA's would be a good choice.

I would suggest PBM LCA, they have massive camber adjust ability and at a great price. The shop that did my alignment was surprised how much camber I can get out of them.

I looked at them, they're the same price as SPC. But their site says out of stock. Where did you get them?

only place is their site, SPC maxes out a -2 camber while PBM LCA can go far more, so far im at -3.
