Cut springs

[SeatLeon5548]

is it a bad idea to cut spring for a mk1 Leon? I’ve been told they’ll not seat properly due to the design of mk1 Springs.

Just don't do it. Get some coilovers from eBay or shorter springs but don't cut them. Old bill see it....kiss that car good bye for a while.

I have a set of H&R lowering springs that came off my LCR
Doing nothing in my garage.
Yours for 60 quid and post or collect.
Much safer and more accurate way of lowering.
Nice drop. Nothing excessive.

My car has 40mm already but they’re not low enough, how low are they?

Old bill is what worries me it’s the chance of the spring bouncing out going over a hill at high speed

Again...just don't do it. Be cheap yes....but don't be dumb.

No idea. They were on it when I bought it.
