On rare occasions, I've chopped a coil on springs to achieve a nicer drop.

And they still ride okay.

I was gonna buy Megans but i declined after i saw a pic of it installed on 2GS which the rears was lowered than the fronts and decided to get Ksport instead since it's a progressive rated springs and produced only for GS4. I haven't read a review on Sprint springs but i heard they're bouncy...
