Lotus Suspension Performance with BC Coilovers

FAQs

Which Lotus models can I get BC Racing coilovers for?

BC Racing offers coilovers for select Lotus platforms, including the Elise and Exige. Because availability varies, select your exact model and year on the listing to confirm the correct kit for your car.

Are BC Racing coilovers good for a daily-driven Lotus?

Yes. BC Racing matches spring rates to lightweight Lotus chassis so you sharpen control without dulling the road feel these cars are built around. The 30-way damping on the BR Series lets you run a livable street setting and firm up for track days.

Which BC Racing series should I choose for my Lotus, BR, DS, or ER?

The BR Series is the best all-around choice for a street-and-occasional-track Lotus, with 30-way combined damping adjustment. The DS Series adds digressive valving for sharper low-speed control on track-focused builds. The ER Series separates compression and rebound through external reservoirs for dedicated track use.

How low do BC Racing coilovers go on a Lotus?

Ride height is set through the fully threaded shock body, independent of spring preload, so you keep full suspension travel at your chosen height. That lets you optimize stance and weight distribution on supported Lotus applications without giving up travel.

Do BC Racing Lotus coilovers come with camber plates and bump stops?

Pillowball top mounts and camber adjustment are included where the platform supports them to maximize steering precision. Bump stops are part of the assembled kit, protecting the suspension at full compression so handling stays consistent.

Are BC Racing coilovers rebuildable, and where are they made?

Every BC Racing coilover is fully rebuildable, so you can service and revalve rather than replace as your build evolves. They are manufactured by BC Racing, an established coilover maker with a long global track record, and carry a 2-year warranty through BC Racing North America.

Do I need an alignment after lowering my Lotus?

Yes. Lowering a Lotus changes camber and toe, so a professional alignment afterward protects your tires and keeps handling precise and predictable. If your kit includes camber adjustment, the alignment is where you set your preferred street or track settings.
