    He already has springs from the UK with a 30-35mm drop.

    Either get those ones lowered, or cut a coil off em if you must.

    I`d just be happy with how the car handles TBH. Get bigger wheels instead.

    dude, just cut em its not a bigdeal, no they dont bounce unless u hit bumpstops, trust me, ive cut 5 coils before i bought the coilovers, it was bouncy, i cut the bumpstops out and it was sweet, TBH i think the coils are bouncier than the cut springs

    Maths not your strong point ? Bigger wheels would make the car sit higher , lower profile tyres will make it sit lower
