question about cutting springs

[slammed_cb7]

I have yet to do it myself but there really isn't anything wrong with it other than it is ghetto. Springs work like a torsion bar so the shorter they are, the stiffer they will ride. Aslong as you have some good struts and your cuts are good, there should be no issue. If your springs were tapered that would be a whole different story but us with cb7's and lots of other hondas can get away with it.

Even tapered springs are fine. And there's no such thing as a progressive spring. I'd cut springs if I knew they'd come out at the height I want.

If not a ghetto sleeve over coil over will do the same also.

If you really wanna go slammed, you can go with ground controls. It was about 7 years ago, but if I remember correctly, we unscrewed the adjustment all the way past the threads to were it just sat maxed out. It scraped ALOT though, couldn't even run over a beer can laying on it's side without dragging it for awhile.

Juss buy coilovers and resell your springs

yeah man what he said. it will save you money on the longrun, and may give you a little money back from the stock springs you sell
if you cut the springs.....hell, you ride will hop like crazy on every little bump you hit on the road
