mind if i chime in... i been on two sets of springs.. skunks .. and eibachs but were cut.. skunks were cut 2 coils front and like 3 in the back. they were stiff as hell but i had to swap them when i changed wheels because of the lower offset. i then went to eibachs n cut a coil off the front and rear.. im rocking these right now on 15x7 +35 wheels.. cut a coil from the rear and you will be alot happier with the stance

Three coils in the rear?! Holy hell that had to be low low low! I'm tucking tire in the rear and I only cut one. To answer the question I cut the rear springs about three months ago so roughly 4500 miles, they are ever so slightly stiffer, but I only notice it at low speeds like going over speed bumps and such. Her are the other shots that I have, they aren't much better than the first sad to say....

those pics are fine, i just wanted to make sure that if i cut the spring in the back that i wouldn't blow the shock out or mess something up. Three in the rear is insane, but i'm thinking that one will do the trick perfectly.

Looks okay but I like your old set of wheels better. The set in your signature.
