Need pics of drop for diffrent coilovers

I'm debating on types of coilovers to get. I want to go full true coilover. Right now I am

leaning towards the Tein SS. But I have heard good things about the B&G and the H&R

setups. I would like to see some pics of the diffrent setups at thier maximum or close to

maximum drop. I did do a search on this but with the site changing servers most of the pics

didn't come up, or werent available.If you have one of the listed setups..please let me know

how you like it. I want to hear from people who have these setups. I dont care about

the "thoughts" or "opinions" of someone that doesn't have them.

Thanks everyone.

Well, mine's not at maximum either. But you can check the sig for a linky to pictures. If you wanna see a B&G equipped car near maximum drop, check out Mex's Ride.

As for the ride of the B&Gs, they ride and handle pretty much like a race car. Awesome handling at the expense of a cushy ride. One drawback to the autoadjusting dampers of the B&Gs is that any load in the rear (passengers or heavy cargo) will make the dampers think the car is under heavy cornering and it'll stiffen up accordingly. You coupe guys probably don't have passengers in the back as often as sedan guys (like me), so you may not have noticed this yet.

I have pics of the B&Gs in the process of installation here:

Thanks to everyone that has helped out with posts!! am still leaning

towards the teins due to the adjustablity of the shocks. I like to be

able to provide a cushy ride for when I take long trips. It seems to go

low enough for my taste. I appreciate all those that helped me out.

Thanks again
