Any owners who have cut Eibach springs installed? If so, please help!

hey, i was wondering if anyone had any problems if you have Eibach Pro Kit springs that are cut to about 1 coil??? Also, did u have 1 coil cut all-around or just the front springs?

I bought a set of these used cut springs like 2 years ago, but I just never installed them and right now, I'm debating whether I should install them when the warmer weather comes around (won't be for awhile!).

Also, could you tell me how the drop is, the ride harshness, and the handling? I hear that if u cut 1 coil, it makes it a 2 inch drop? Is this true? Any advice about cut eibach springs wwould be greatly appreciated, thanks alot guys.

I would not recommend it. I once bought a set of Eibach's with a one coil cut all around for my Eclipse. It looked fine but the ride was too harsh. Everytime I had my car jacked, I had to carefully re-align the springs over the struts when the car is lowered. One month later I got rid of them and put on a set of H&Rs.
