You have the Eibach Pro-Kit? When you say half a turn you mean you cut a half coil? I've been contemplating on doing this with my springs too.

Stance looks great btw!

Actually cutting progressive rate springs like these is a dicey proposition at best. I've been on the fence about this. Taking out the isos would bring it down another 1/4"-1/2".
