MSRP, $79.90.

I've seen them in silver and gold. IDK if you can pick the color though.

I had BC BR Coils which weren't very good.

What I really want (and what I should have gotten instead of the BC's) is a Koni/Ground Control set-up. Konis and stock springs for now is just a simple transition since I couldn't afford the Ground Control stuff before the season started. My car will stay relatively unchanged until the last event in August or so. Maybe I'll stay in Stock class for the Slush series too though. Depends on how much rubber is left on these pizza cutters.

But I can say that my current set-up is extremely close, performance wise, to my old set-up.

The stuff that changed;

BC BR coilovers -> Koni shocks w/ stock springs
18x8 Rota P45 -> 16x6.5 OEM Premium Alloy
235/40/18 Toyo T1R -> 205/55/16 Dunlop Direzza ZII

The tires are mind boggling. The ZII's are about 2 inches narrower and provide about the same level of grip.

The next event where I'm scheduled to run in the morning, I'm going to bring the Rota/Toyo set and do a second run on those to see what kind of times I can put down.
What specifically was it about the bc's that weren't very good?
