^not a good idea, but good luck (you'll probably need it). you might as well take the springs out and put a brick in there if you wanna be low, unsafe, and have crappy handling with denatured springs. it'll cost a lot less. this may have been a little harsh, yea, but it's not my intention to offend you. it's because i really hope nobody sees this and gets the idea to do the same with their springs.

youre probably joking but if not, you might as well do that to your stock springs then, itd be the same

Sorry in advance if this was covered, and if no one has done it on there 09 maybe i'll be the first!
the top coil is there to prevent rattles when your strut
is at full extension...so you might want to leave it
as is.
