they might blow out too, depending on how long you drive it like that and the roads you drive on (that is, if indeed you do drive it this way...)

I suppose if you have an extra set of worn shocks and mounts, you could do the swap easy enough for the fronts. Rears is just a spring swap so it's up to you if you want to risk blowing up that shock.

Probably no shop in their right mind is going to do this for you so you're going to have to be stupid all on your own. I've done 1 coil before but I have a grinder with a cut off tool.

dont waste your time man... it wont be that big of a difference than lowering your car... unless you really want your car to be uncomfortable as all hell and near impossible to drive depending on how much you cut them
