It's good for looks and looks only.
funny, when you cut springs you get 3 things, lower center of gravity(handles better), looks, and stiffer due to less coils
and when you buy them you get 4, lower center of gravity(handles better), looks, and stiffer due to less coils, and 2 hours and $200 gone
www.corvetteforums.com isnt it time for you to find a new hangout....
Thanks man you seem to be the only one to answer the question I asked.

To all of those who think that I am cheap or getto for cutting the springs look at my signature, I have put over $10,000 into modding my car. So I am not cheap Just looking for a quick fix till I finish my suspension with rear coilovers.

It's not smart, it's not what the stock springs are designed for. Do it right or don't do it at all I say....

It won't handle better, so why do it?
I don't care about handleing I care about the weight transfer. If I could find somewhere that just sold rear lowering springs that are soft like the stock ones then I would get those. But I don't think that is going to happen. This is just going to be a temp thing till I coilover the rear too.
Why not just get adjustable coil overs for the rears? Problem solved
