I would never cut springs as well. I know people who has, those who don't really care..but it's risky imo. Either do it the right way and get coilovers or don't do it at al. I don't mind the rear spring mount cut but cutting the actual spring itself is a negative.
P.S. I thought X-Men was a pretty freaking cool movie! Of course any movie with sweet action is cool to me. They are well over 80million opening weekend already. I think they might make it to 100....impressive

There are local shop owners who blew motors, installed things wrong, charges ridiculous rates, etc. My point is that just because somebody has a shop, it doesn't mean their judgment isn't always the best one. Basically, don't cut the springs.

Oh, well this guy is in New York. He has had an SLR in for repairs, he custom made new headlights, tailights, added paddle shifters, a carputer, added '06+ body panels. Basically, if there is anyone I would trust, it would be him. Besides, Eibach springs are the ones with the problems. I would never cut one of those. There aren't many options for FX's so a few people have cut springs/shaved mounts. I'm also waiting to hear about the Intrax springs, but that hasn't gone well in the past so no use getting my hopes up.

I personally don't care about lowering my car or making the wheels flush or whatever (especially not on a SUV). Anyway, in your position, I'd say the best option is to leave it alone until some real lowering springs has been proven to work well.

Thats why I only wanted to drop a little bit from where I was at and when I found those Tein H Springs on CL I was all over them. They actually dropped me a bit more than I expected.
So from a stock Spring & 40's all-around ....the drop turned out Great & the ride is actually much better than expected.

There is a local guy who rents them out. You can find him here.
http://www.rollyourfender.com/
You could normally find someone on here to split cost with you. It's like 50$ to rent it (plus deposit that you get back)
