    I want to cut my springs but am worried about messing up my alignment. I have prodrive blues installed so how hard would it be to cut them correctly? if there is a correct way. dont rage on me

    There is no correct way. You dont cut springs if you have a brain

    Listen to what wrxin8or is saying. If you decide you still want to go ahead with cutting springs, at least cut your stock springs and not a good set of prodrives. It would be a mistake to mess up nice springs like that.

    If they are progressive rate you could get away with cuting some of the soft rate away without too much effect to your ride but get a little bit lower.
    You will need another alignment though.

    Do not cut your springs it will make your car bounce all over the road. Just buy a new set that has more drop like Tein s or somthig like that.

    Well to answer the first bit, cutting your springs would wreck the alignment because you would have to remove the springs from the struts to do so. Nevertheless, if you want a "lower" stance get "lowering" springs. Sell the prodrives afterward to recoup some cashola.
