I have sprints.The rear sits about 3/4'' higher ,but i wouldn't cut the springs.I also have 12'' punch and 2 amps.They are not heavy enough to lower the car .I have 18x8.5 wheels ,if i lowered it any more it would rub when i have rear passengers.

I have sprints as well and the car sits only slightly higher in the rear. Be warned, at first it sits really high in the back (see pic) But after driving around with about 300lbs of cement in the trunk, they settled nicely. only about a half inch higher in back now.

I have sprints and I cut a coil and am glad that I did. It sits even and I think it wouldn't have if I hadn't of cut it. I also have a sinle 12 in the trunk. I do scrub a little when I go over speed bumps when people are in the car but I think that would happen anyway, I mean its a lowerd car. I would cut it[IMG].

i just cut my sprints and installed some agx's while i was under there (2 wks ago). they still sit just a touch higher in the rear... hopefully when i put my 2 12's or 1 15 it'll sit perfectly even.

I have 1 15 in my trunk with the box and everything it weighs 70lbs, do you think that will be enough to drop it 1/2 in, if i get the sprints?
