If your car is low now, why do you want to cut the springs?

I think it a bad idea to go over 1.75" drop and sounds like you will be lower than that if you cut.

What is your ideal drop?

Are you just looking for better shock/strut for ride comfort or plan on doing any track time? C/C plates might be a good idea as well.

Good place to start...

i have already cut my springs. dropped it about 2", maybe a bit more. cc plates and shocks/struts when i get some cash.

i dont do any racing or auto cross. just looking for a stock or better than stock ride quality. maybe a little bit of spirited driving .
