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.

Yeah, but I wouldnt sacrifice, the performance & mileage just to get the back end down a little.
