clamping springs

[gators]

i was wondering if clamping springs is a safe alternative to buying lowering springs. friends are cutting springs but I don't want to go through the mess they cause. but anyway i heard a place around here will clamp ur springs for like $30. could drop car about 2". i was wondering if this is safe cause i know it has to be better than cutting springs..<P>trying to get my car lookin sweet before Hot Import Nights comes to New Orleans

clamp your springs and die!~ just save up the 300 and get apex springs!!! clamping can cause your spring to snap!!!!! NOT GOOD!

yea i've heard very bad things about clamping them, either buy new springs or LIVE with the ones you got.

i don't know what they look like and i haven't really heard any horror stories. a friend just told me the other day about it and i was just curious. cause my other stupid friends have cut springs with one dumba$$'s tires leaning in and ruining both front tires.
