coilovers are adjustable. you can cut your springs.....but dont. extremely dangerous when they heat up. may look cool but you want your car to be as safe as possible

Re: Lowering springs

yeah, don't go cutting your stock springs. you'll hate yourself for it later. i say check out some dropzone springs. coilovers are alright, if thats the route you want to go. depends on what you want to use the car for really. track, daily driver ect...
