Cut em man. You'll like it and save the money. If not, you can always buy some later still...

Mine are already cut and I hate it! It was fine at first but now it rides like a hacked up civic. Way too bouncy up front for me.

i wonder why they've gotten stiffer? thats wierd. you think maybe your struts have gone bad? i have eibach's on mine and they are stiffer then stock. they aren't bad but then again i rarely drive it.

I vote for H&Rs, i bought mine on ebay for like 297 shipped, i doubt anyone has any used and if you find them new your only gonna save 30 bucks prolly. Id ratehr order them and have them on the way.

I think they've gotten softer. They felt great right after I cut them but feels like its gotten worse the more I have driven it. It feels like a slower, longer/bigger bounce and not a shorter stiffer bounce. Judging from the bounce, i bet its noticeable from driving next to it, especially with the crappy roads we have here from all the snow/heat cycles we get. I don't mind the stiffness, infact i'd like a stiffer suspension but this slow 70's cadillac feel has got to go. Stock was a great ride to me but the height blows.

Just make sure that when you order them they are in stock! I ordered and was then told they were on back order 8-12 weeks from H&R.
