It almost feels like you are on stock springs

Rear springs seem like they would sit fine on perch if the bottom is cut.Front ones seem like they would sit at the edge of perch if cut too much... what say you!?

They would sit funny if u just lower the car down. The pain is about halfway compressed u have to weasel in and get the spring in the seat. It is a touch of an angle but it will work. Mine are about 4 - 5 shorter than untouch stock springs.

Sorry about the confusion about cutting part. I was meaning the whole spring. If u cut a 1/3 of a coil you'll b mad cuz all that work and its about 1/8" drop lol. Believe me haha

Actually front ones are no big deal cause its only on the edge, what you will have to worry about are rears since they usually fell off for being too short.

Well yea but people who cut their springs don't care.
I myself don't cut springs cause it ruins the entire suspension system.

How is the ride quality on the highway? Looks cool but is it functional. How does the car drive? Is it stiff or bouncy, comfortable, or unbearable?
