Springs

Yes, im prepared to be flamed.
question. my EG hatchback DX.
too lower it, how many coils should i cut off the stock springs.
id like it too just sit perfect on the stock wheels.
maybe 1" or two of sidewall tucking, not much.

If it helps the flaming part of it.
i know chopped springs suck, i will be buying OMNI's in the summer. my 240 has cusco 32-way coilovers, with pillowball mounts.

im not new to the suspension part of cars.

just answer the question

please and thanks

take one off (not including the dead coil at the very top)...that'll drop her like its hot

so basically take one section off, it'll drop about 1-2"
