I got Ground Control Coilovers right now. I am probably going to put stock springs back on cuz the bumps in the road are crazy and the coilovers are hard so they dont do much absorbing. I want to be low but wana ride in some comfort. My question is..... Has anyone cut their stock springs b-4? And if yes then how many coils???

Let me know.
Aight Peace

I'd have to agree with what everyone else has said already;
Get new springs and/or new struts.

Coilovers are meant to be rock solid, they're just not practical enough for road use.
(My friend has coilovers on his car and has to take some corners slowly otherwise the car will bounce over the bumps in the road and towards the kerb/sidewalk). :-S

they(coils) arn't ment to be rock solid but yes a higher rate then stock cause its "sport tuned suspension" not econimcal suspension

but it is practical for every day use
i have a full coilover drop for everyday use and i'm fine
i've had it for a year and love it
but yes it is bumpier then stock thats a given for any aftermarket suspension

mad.gif just don't cut your coils
