Is the coding a do it yourself process? Or who can do this remotely?

It slowly came back on the 19's. So hopefully putting the coilovers on helps. I'll report back when I do! I did however do my center support bearing and that helped too. Car feels smoother but I can definitely feel something off in the suspension.

Ah damn. Been following you before you even copped the whip and wanted one bad so I already know it's probably bugging you.

I got new Work wheels a while ago that I thought was the culprit for me also, but for some reason when I put the stocks back on my vibration was still there. I plan on copping BCs in the new few weeks too so like you I'm hoping that helps. Def looking forward to see if that helps you.

Shoot me now I am reviving this thread. So I am considering picking these up and I want to know if the swift spring option is worth it or I'll be fine passing. Looking for just street use, no track usage anytime soon. Also what are most of you running for specs fr/rr

Anyone wondering how high you can go with the BR series (non EDC) here you go. I have these on since 2 years, you can go really low with it but i have them all the way up and softest settings, still ride is a little bouncy for me compared to stock but for 950 dollars you cant beat it + they are really good for track.

Did you install the rear damping extenders?

I just got the BR and I have EDC can anyone recommend how I can get the codes out? I dont know anyone to code them out or do I have to use another brands EDC delete kit?

Any BMW indy shop should be able to code it out. When I got mine done I had a local shop code it out.

What settings did you have for the front and rear? How many clicks?

I just installed BC BR series coilovers on my 2011 E92 M3 with EDC and it is a little bouncy but wayy better than where my suspension was prior (I also replaced front control arms and Tension struts/arms...98kmile car it was needed).

Will post a review of my experience after a week or so of driving.

Has anyone seen damper dyno plots of BC dampers. A damper with more adjustable clicks doesn’t necessarily make it a better damper; e.g., if it takes 6-8 clicks before you can feel a difference than having more clicks means nothing. Also, I would expect the BC damper to show very little adjustment from ~1-10 and or ~20-30 because the needle valve doesn’t have the precision required over 30 clicks
