hehehe, i might cut them, cos i'm swapping to coilover soon and i want to see how my car will look like with the lowest position posible hehehe, but i think it won't happen cos currently my tyre rub pretty bad when bump is around and my tyres are quiet new.

I think they will leave your car alone (as long as you don't sqaush it anymore!!
)

I don't know about you guys but my car rides great. The biggest difference in the ride is switching from the 16's to the 19's.
My tires are actually only 215's ,I always lower my cars alot, so I undersize the tires to avoid rubbing.
W0n6_3d4n do your front tires rub, I'm scared when I lower the front more they will touch on a full turn.
P.S. I didn't write this post for comments from the peanut gallery

when going straight and turning when going uphill they won't scrub, but as soon as you go downhill and do full turn they scrub badly. I feel my car goes lower and lower each month, the front is actually lower than the first time i cut my spring

thats why it isn't good to cut springs. they weren't designed for that. additionally, the springs are designed to take a certain load. cutting them decreases the load and in your case slowly compresses more and more until eventually...boom!! or to say the least will break. it looks amazing though. everyone does his/her own. thats just my experience.

Yeah, cutting spring is a bit stupid really but can't deny the result , as long as u don't drag anyone it should be fine. The car feel a bit wobbly on the highway and u can feel the slightest bump heehhehehe.

You should just get those hydraulic or airbag suspensions if you want to go so low! You'd probably lose all handling (not that it's optimal now anyways ) but hey you can make it go as low as you want and go a bit higher if you're rubbing too bad. I saw some guy with a Civic at a doughnut shop parking lot one night playing with it. It was kinda ghetto, but hey, if you like your cars ground-scraping low, it seems like a good idea.
