Cutting the springs is not a good way, matter of fact, its dangerous!!But if you must, measure with a Tape and use a band saw or port-a-band for the best cut.

coilovers or lowering springs are better.. but iv cut many springs and never had a problem.. i dunno people say its dangerous... i cut 3 coils out of my crx last time.an inch would be like 1 coil probably.. maybe half in the back.
