Lowering Cultus Euro2

[saad.farukh1]

Hello everyone . I am new here so i need some suggestions regaring my car .
I have a cultus euro 2 2015 model . and i have it lowered by the desi cutting the kabli springs . with a tyre profile of 175/70/13 . this trick has removed the gap between fender and tyre and also looks good.
I wanted to ask that is this cutting spring trick fine for a daily driven car ?
What problems will i be facing in the future and should i change anything ?
Thank you

If spring get too small it will move from it's position on any bump.
I had done such experiment. I works but never recommended.
Just get some lowering springs.

Have daily driven a Civic EG on cut springs for close to 5 years, on KHI roads, and on 195/55-15 tires. Faced absolutely no issues, either with suspension or steering. Handling was top notch too. Daily commute was around 35kms. The only downside was a shorter axle and strut life.

Handling was top notch with the same standard springs that were cut? Please elaborate. I wanna know what top notch refers to

A desi jugaar will always work. Half the cars on the road you see have been touched by the hands of our ustaads. So cutting springs will also do the job. But is it the right way of doing things? No. Apart from the fact that you'll be at the allignment shop every now and then, you're going to ruin the ride of your car. The spring rate is different for stock springs and stiffened lowered springs. Cutting the stock spring will have an impact of the suspension travel and youre going to regret it on a daily driven car. Best bet is to look into progressive lowered springs. E.g. Eibach and H&R along with other manufacturers make entry level progressive springs that offer comfort and sportier handling due to the design of the springs. These can work in parallel with the standard shocks since the drop is usually 10-35mm. Anything lower and its recommended to switch to sportier shocks e.g. the bilstein b6 or b8 etc

Save up and get the right stuff

Cut springs work fine imo , but still its a jugaar,

I have auto crossed with my friends before it was a thing, I have owned and driven cars with coil overs and I know what spring rates are, so no I'm not talking out of my ass. I don't know how you expect me to explain to you about how it handled.

New Eibach, H&R or Bilstien springs on a stock cheapo econo box is a joke.

You can simply reply to what I asked you. If you can't explain that, don't mention it.

I didn't ask for your life story or what you do with your friends. As for you thinking that good equipment isn't worth putting on Shitboxes ( as you refer to them ), I assume that's why you also ran chopped springs on your civic

Cheers
