Hey people, just found some interesting article about cutting springs. Check it out: http://forums.maxima.org/showthread.php?t=447301

 

That is an old article...most springs these days have progressive spring rates, so cutting them is a bad idea.

back then, most/all springs were linear, so cutting them had little effect on the ride quality. If you cut a progressive spring, ride quality will go in the tank...

 

that, and cutting may be ok for race-only applications...but not for cars that actually have to deal with potholes, ridges, dips, and other road imperfections.

 

three words: don't do it! Just like Irish said.

 

lol, I'm not going to, I just wanted to show that it is not as bad as everyone says it is.
