Cut springs are too soft plus the rear springs would fall out if he body sprung up too far.


Lots of decent 2" drop springs out there. Expect to pay around $150

The tanabe DF210 are your best choice for such an agressive drop. DONT CUT YOUR SPRINGS!!! You will kill your ride quality and cut springs will just sag and sag and sag until the car is sitting on the chassis, i really would NOT recommed cut springs, save a little money and buy the tanabe's.

Save up your money and do it right. You will regret the cut springs. Very easy install.

buy whatever springs, just dont cut them.
i went with TEIN's S-Tech's. if you need a place to install them,
i went to SpeedZone on Michigan Avenue neat Kissimee.

springs = $170, installation = $125.
or have a buddy do it.
if you want a drop like you asked for, go with Goldlines.
