Description
CHEVROLET CORVETTE C5/C6 (97-13) BC Racing DS Series Coilovers | 10/12kg.mm
BC Racing DS Series Coilovers for the CHEVROLET CORVETTE C5/C6 (97-13) deliver precision suspension tuning with a 10/12kg.mm spring rate, engineered to enhance handling response and ride quality on both road and track. These street-focused coilovers provide adjustable damping and ride height control, making them an ideal choice for Corvette owners seeking improved performance without compromising daily drivability. The BC Racing DS Series combines Japanese engineering with proven reliability to meet the demands of modern performance driving.
BC Racing DS Series Coilovers
The BC Racing DS Coilover system is built with digressive valving, offering the same great benefits of the BR Series and is considered a perfect choice for those looking for track-biased coilovers. The digressive piston design produces a non-linear damping curve — allowing higher low-speed damping to control body roll through cornering, acceleration and braking, while providing reduced high-speed damping to allow the wheel to travel when running kerbs, preventing the impact from transmitting fully into the shell and retaining car balance.

Digressive Piston Valving
Unlike a conventional linear piston, the DS digressive design increases damping force at low piston velocities — the range associated with body roll, pitch and dive during driven inputs — while reducing damping force at high piston velocities, such as when a wheel travels over a kerb. This keeps the car stable during cornering loads while allowing impacts to be absorbed without upsetting the chassis balance.
