Default Best Coilovers for C6

Looking for coilovers for my c6, and saw BC makes a set. I was wondering if anyone has these coilovers?

If not, what's best option for coilovers for the C6

Well, what do you want to do with your car? Is it for the street and windy roads? Street with some track use? Or a more aggressive track car?

Or are you just trying to make the car look lower for the visual effect.

Regarding BC's, they're pretty **** for anything other than making your car really low to the ground. I remember reading a link where someone tested them, and found that the "adjustability" was unpredictable and often didn't actually even do anything. Plus, the parts were cheap crap.

LG and Pfadt coils seem to be the most popular given budget and performance, though LG coils may not be constructed all too well:
