whoa whoa... this isn't fuckin 1960/70's.
i hear stories of my dad and uncle's friends who would chop springs on old toyotas and datsuns. fuckin rode like shit but it looked ill.
in a physics standpoint, cutting a spring is just horrible.
springrate isn't increased, causing more stress on shock absorber components. also, with a lowered ride on stock shocks, the gas is always under load, causing it to wear faster and theres a HIGH chance they'll just blow.
btw, lowered ride does NOT equal better handling. many many other factors come into play. suspension geometry mainly.
