Spring question, Need opinons =) Options

[Vibe]

Okay I used to work at Wheel Works and have a few mechanic friends, so I asked them if I bought aftermarket springs and got them cut just for the inch drop how bad would it be? I got mixed feedback like "it will give you the look you want" and "it will be too bouncy you'll hate it" or "it'll be stiff and you'll feel every bump".

So this is why I am asking you guys, to see what the best thing to do on a limited budget to get that inch or so drop but make the ride decent, also can you guys give me your opinon on these?

If I got those and cut em what else would I need to do to make sure my struts don't go, or other bad things I read when I did a search. Thanks in advance.

If you cut the stock springs your car will ride fine for about a month then it will begin to bounce.If you are buying springs that are for lowering and cutting those your car will ride spongy not so much of the bounce.But do not take any more than a coil.Beaware that your struts will go for a **** eventually.In my opinnion just buy a good set of coil overs and your done.
