The BC's are great pieces of kit, make sure you get the rear extenders though.

Unless you want to go wild with the camber the bolts should do it and adjustment is a bit of a pin on the top mounts.

what about eibach coilovers? had them fitted for nearly 3yrs ,the ride is firm without being harsh or choppy and still look good after a couple of winters . they cost a bit more and than bc's arent adjustable but i trust eibachs damper settings. reckon they know more about it than me

just another option
