Apart from completly ruining the handling of your car and killing your dampers, ruining your tyres not to mention being an MOT fail aswell
id always reccomend getting some shorter springs, cant be more than £45 off ebay for a 40mm-60mm drop but anyway

if you REALLY wanna do it, make sure you use spring compressors to remove the springs from the damper, or you will probably end up in hospital

okay saying that, i think ill just put the -40mm fronts i have on thanks Octane

yeh put the 40mm springs one..sure it will look fine and dandy lol

you should never ever cut springs!!! its a complete no no

Just to let you know, on them steelies ur braking and turning in the wet will be horrible, nothing but lock ups and understeering when you lower it without the shocks to go with..

i had mine lowered on steelies and it handles really well..and i used to rally it flat out
