Sounds like you improperly installed the coilovers. Forget to tighten down the bolts in the trunk?

I have the BC "extreme low" versions too. They don't really go that low. My KW V2 went lower. You have to start removing collars to try to get it lower, or you can increase the camber to make it look lower.

thats the thing i don't get removing collars not to big on suspension

What spring rates do you have?

I know someone on just the BR version and they got a decent drop and still have room left to go lower.
