how many coils?
DONT CUT THE SPRINGS! Trust me! It's a lot better to just spend the $200 on a set of lowering springs! Save yourself the trouble! It will ride like **** and is just an all-around bad idea!

Cutting the springs is perfectly fine. I ran lowered F-bodies w/ cut springs for YEARS.
For the ride height you're trying to acquire, just cut 1 coil off all the way around. Do not use anything to cut the springs that creates a lot of heat. Band saws work GREAT for this type of ****.

I run them on my car, I have to. Ive yet to find the perfect spring for the added weight on the front of my car. SO after trying many different ones I dediced to cut the stockers. Looks better then all the ones Ive tried. It doesnt ride like ****, like most people claim.

i went ahead and took off exactly one coil in the front because i have the 17 and 18 z06 wheels, and i have to admit those 17's dont look so baby anymore but somethin up there is knockin now when i hit bumps almost like a bad ball joint but i think its the sway bar bushing. not sure. also i couldnt get the spring out of the strut a turned the bolt a thousand times and it never moved so i clamp down on the compressor and took a cut off wheel to the coil exactly next to where the other one seats and i chopped it and took it out, loosened up the compressors and wal-ah lowered strut..,

Who cares about them? How many of us have mullets anyway?"They" can't even change their own spark plugs. They have to take their cars to dealers everytime the hood needs to be popped. **** on 'em.
