Sounds dangerous and uncomfortable =\ Looks good lowered on stocks though. Staggered look is when your stance in the rear is wider than the front right? I don't think its with there is more gap in the rear than the front...

What's the point of coilovers if you have to cut springs to lower?

Are you saying you have coilovers in the front and stock springs that are cut in the rear?

umm are you sure you didnt install the back springs in the front, the stiff springs were probably for the front so that the weight of the engine would drop it and the super low ones in the front are probably for your back.

Nice job but a bit too low for me. I could never drive that low in Chicago with our winters and potholed streets. Good thing you're below the sunbelt.

Well yes, I'm just happy someone else that's a girl is on here.

But regardless it is dangerous. I wouldn't do it that way, but I wish her the best of luck.

We have the same dream.. except mine is for Tein. I figure wheels next spring, and Teins the spring after. Hopefully my shocks will hold up.
