agreed, if you're only looking for springs.

seems like you wanna go, "REALLY LOW." so, i would recommend either going with a full coilover suspension kit or even better.. an air ride kit.

You cut your springs?

For a low drop I'd be looking at Espelir ASD springs. I had them on my old Soarer and they were pretty damn low, I could barely get over any speedhump without scraping (with a 3" exhaust system), but you WILL need low offset wheels to make it sit with the guards and not in them (+38mm sat in the guards too much )... the Espelir springs are pretty soft as well if that's the ride you're looking for.
