I got my sprints, and that front looks pretty sick, but the back is TOO high. my question is if I cut one coil from the back springs, how much lower will they go, and how much worse will my ride quality get?

has anyone tried just cutting the back springs? does it make a difference cuz the car is front wheel drive?

would one coil be enough to cut, and would two be too many. I still want the back a little higher than the front, but not how it is right now.

I know you posted this but let me ask you something as soon as you installed the springs did you notice the difference in drop? About how much finger well gap do you have now in front of the car? I hope you understand my question? I purchased some springs that were suppose to lower my car 2 inches but didnt I have a 3 finger well gap in front I was wondering about how much do you have? And how long did it take for your springs to settle down? I installed them 3 days ago, I am anxious for the car to go down some more in the front

I had my brother drive past me and the gap closes when the car is in motion, just in case you didnt know that. Try it and you'll see what I mean. Now I have a big nasty gap on my front fender well gap that was the whole purpose of buying these damn drop zone springs that my sister picked up in Miami but she didnt know no better so is not her fault. The guy claims they are made by the same company that sprint goes through. I dont know if that is true. If I have to take off the rear intrax springs I will and Ill just have to get back to you and see whats the outcome since we are both doing this 2 inch slam on our cars except you have sprints and I have this weird new name brand.

hey jay25 from that angle you really cant see any gap the drop looks good.i also i have sprints all around and yes the rear will sit higher they settled after about a week or so for me the front looks really sweet, as for the gap you should have about a finger in the front depending on how fat your fingers are.i also thought about cutting rear coils but thats designed to sit that way so ill just leave it for the best drop in my opinion coil overs are the way to go ill planing on that next summer hope this helps..
