Had some bc racing coilovers on about 2 week now, don't like how hard they are, especially on the roads where I am and cant get the fronts to stop scraping the arch liners when hitting dips in the road and hard cornering.

I know its been covered a lot but i would appreciate peoples input, im considering getting rid and using springs, will there be any rubbing with them and what are they like handing and comfort wise?

Also any pics of spring ride height please
 
Doesn't sound like you've set the height correctly? Being ultra low will obviously make for a firmer ride too. With the AP coilovers virtually as low as theyll go I don't scrape on dips in the road, nor do I have a particularly firm ride or hard cornering. If you're scraping with dips they must be really low

On the bc coilovers, hight is not adjusted by the spring, its a ring at the bottom, also have adjustable dampers. There not a problem on Good roads, just the ones i drive on, 25 miles of potholes and badly maintained roads haha

Springs on my ibiza
Problems: when hitting big dips then bottom out at the back and make a horrendous noise, handles like a boat because they are far too soft.

You can adjust the coilovers for a softer ride you know
