there u go buddy, do NOT clamp your springs, it will make your car ride and handle like a stagecoach. get this or something similar, if this drop is not enough ill find you a kit with more drop just PLEASE DO NOT CLAMP OR CUT YOUR SPRINGS!!!

i dont think you'd find softer springs...when you buy springs that are new they're always stiffer...i think the only way you can do it is to buy a lowering spring kit
