B&G racing?

are b&g's good for turning. Are they stiff like tiens at a certain damper, or will they be mushy like the stockers?

B&Gs have auto-adjusting dampners. They get stiffer as the damper body gets shorter (hard cornering). The ride is comfortable and stiff under normal driving, but can get downright harsh with any people or cargo in the back seat/trunk. The ride is far from mushy.

Cornering performance is nothing short of amazing.

SHOX.com is the only place that I have been able to find them for at that price.
For an extra 500 I would go with the Zeal Function B2 and get the helper springs.
But that is just what I would do.

In the front it has a upper spring which is a 200-60/85-40 with an 80-20 helper springs and for the rear it’s a 180-50 (60/85) with a 80-20 helper springs…

The first number is the length and second is the weight, to find the weight in lbs times the number by 5.6…

I forgot the helper springs came with the B+G set up...
