i dont know about being dangerous but i do know if you cut a spring chances are they will continue to fall untill the body hits the tires. If you do decide to cut the springs cut the stock ones and keep the new ones for spares just incase... and ofcourse be ready to do the job twice. also i cant remember if it is KYB or who but someone does make a strut for the front that offers a 1" drop.

The fox 4cyl springs are about the height you are looking for, but still have great weight transfer.
