like the title says what do they look like?
I am in the midst of a swap and I am wondering if I should keep the stock 4 banger springs or pop for something else.

Are any of these original 4 cyl cars that have been converted, and has anyone cut their rear springs to level the car back out or what to get it level?

Are CC plates necessary with uncut 4-banger springs? I might have to swap a set of those into my GT, not just for the lowering aspect but more so because my stock GT springs ride like utter crap...

I have cut springs on my Capri. They're 5.0 springs though. The car rides like ****. I don't know if it'd be the same with 4 banger springs. Cutting springs ftl.

This is an old pic of my first car. It was an original V8 car with stock rear springs and 4 cyl springs up from with no sway bar.

Will the v8 rear springs keep the car from being so jacked up in the rear. I am also interesed in how many coils to cut off to get the low, even stance. But I'm a little worried about going too low cause I live in the country and don't wanna drag my mufflers off on someones driveway

Looks real good, are those 28" tires on the back?
