If you cut your existing springs you will probably crash or experiece very serious problems.

Everyone on this board is gonne recommend you buy springs - don't cut corners!

Im gonna change my 13 steelies for a set of Alessio F1 with 195-50 yokohamas. The question: Should i go for a set of new srpings or just cut mine? The right lowering?
