COILOVERS DS / BC RACING / PONTIAC SOLSTICE

BC Racing DS coilovers for Pontiac Solstice

This new BC Racing DS coilover kit is intended for the Pontiac Solstice. Developed from BC Racing’s motorsport experience, the DS range offers a high-performance solution for improving handling, lowering the vehicle and achieving precise suspension adjustment for sporty road use or occasional trackdays.

Purpose of the part

Coilovers replace the original suspension components to control body movement, ride height and damping firmness. On the Pontiac Solstice, they optimise handling, steering precision and stability during braking, acceleration and changes of load.

DS technology uses a digressive valve called Double Digressive Valving, designed to increase damping at low suspension movement speeds while retaining a stable, controlled high-speed response. This improves control of roll, pitch and weight transfer while maintaining a good level of comfort.

Symptoms or consequences of worn or unsuitable suspension

• Less precise handling and a floating sensation.
• Excessive cornering roll and pronounced pitching under braking.
• Loss of grip during rapid changes in lateral load.
• Irregular tyre wear due to poor alignment or deteriorated damping.
• Less predictable behaviour during sporty driving.

Benefits of replacement

• Improved grip, stability and driving precision.
• Height adjustment independent of spring preload to maintain effective suspension travel.
• 30 levels of rebound and compression adjustment via a single knob.
• Better control of body movement during spirited use.
• An effective balance between road comfort and sporting performance.
• An ideal solution for customising the Pontiac Solstice’s chassis to the intended use.
