Check to make sure everything is tight. Make sure u tightened ur lugnuts cuz they could be loose.

Do you mean that its very bumpy? if so, try adjusting the dampening so that it is softer, it could be set at the highest which cause the suspension to be very stiff and you can feel everything thats on the road.

I have bc coilovers as well.
