Has anyone done this? I have Sportline's and i find the driver's side sits about 1/4" higher than the passenger side. Can i get them trimmed without any adverse affects?

Cutting springs and heating springs are the worst way of lowering a car

I think it's noticeable, but i don't know if anyone else does. I'm a bit of a perfectionist so it bugs me...i was hoping for a solution of some sort, simple if possible.

I cut mine before i got airbags and it lowered it alot but it was to low up front and it made my wheels angle a little but when i drag raced on the streets i could not do it on a bumpie road because the car was really really bouncie i would never tell some one to do it just get bags and adjust it

Ya, air bags would be nice - but don't they cost $1500 or something like that?

i wouldnt cut them......

if u wanna start cutting springs i would prob get stock ones and try it that way first

I've cut a few sets of stockers for friends with no adverse effects.
Just use a cutoff wheel instead of a torch and you'll be fine.

Cut 1 coil from fronts and 1.25 coils from rear for around 1 inch drop.

Cut 1.5 coils from front and 2 from rear for the same effect as a Eibach sportline.

bags cost me $2000 installed will post pics in a month or so when the car is finished

The reason it sits higher is so when you sit in it, it will level out

I've heard that before, but find it hard to believe that the car will sink 1/4" when one os average weight sits in it.

Well instead of thinking that it won't work and leaving it at that get someone to look while you are sitting in the car and be sure about it

93zder

I agree with you - i will do that.
