Default Cutting Tanabe springs?

About to buy a set of Tanabes for my ls400. It says max drop is 1.3 rear and 1.8 front. Could I cut off like 1.5 coils off front and maybe 1 off rear and not totally f*** my stock struts? I want moar low and 1.8 is almost there but over 2 in drop would be nicer. Thanks

Are you looking for an LS400 or IS (IS section)?

Are you in WA state/Seattle area? If you're looking for cheap tanabe springs for a GS/IS.. I can sell you my DF210s for $100.
