As someone who has cut the coils, it works great, and no problems. It only cost a cutting wheel, and if you don't have a disk grinder, you can buy one cheaply.
The important part is to keep the spring cool by dipping in water after just a few seconds of cutting. The top of the front strut can spin to any angle; you don't have to cut exactly one coil. I cut 3/4 in front and 1 in back.
And then align the toe when you are done.
