Question about lowering springs
I found some lowering springs but the lowering rate is only 1.50 I want to go to probably 2. If I cut a coil or so would they still fit ok? I'm asking because of the rear springs are pig-tailed.

Why not buy springs that are engineered for the drop you want?

Haven't found any that give me that drop and can't really afford coilovers right now

I believe the Eibach SportLine is right around 2" as well as Skunk2.
