I chopped:
- 1 coil off the fronts
- 3/4 coil off the rears
This lowered the car 1 inch front & back.
Wasn't hard to do (didn't strip or run into any siezed bolts as I did with the Firefly).
The ride is definitely firmer, and body roll is reduced, but it's perfectly acceptable. If it had a faster steering ratio, the car could be almost
sporty.
The ride is no worse than my parents' 2009 Civic Hybrid, for comparison.
Definitely more civilized than the ~2 inch drop the Firefly got this summer from the Swift GT race car lowering springs.
