BC Racing BR & BR Extreme Low Coilovers

Does anyone know what the physical differences are between the BC Racing's BR and BR Extreme Low coilovers? Would the difference be that you can choose your spring rates with the Extreme Low 'option'?

Pretty much, what ^^ he said is what I was told when I made an order. I was also told you can chose spring rates on either set..

When I ordered my Extreme Drops they said it was take an extra week because they are built to order and the regular ones are in stock. Though I stayed with the 8k rates with my option. I only dropped 2 1/4" or so but I could go way further, but it'd be far from functional.

Kw v3s go pretty low and are a good option if money isn't an issue. Piss quality and had a few issued here and there. They work, and do the job but it depends on your tolerance of such parts
