Well Matt, I think in your case the scenario was a little different then the point I'm trying to make above.
We only took out stacked coils on your Aftermarket springs.
They are there just to add height, They were touching the coils of the next row below and don't really have anything to do with bounce and resistance.
We were only dealing with less then 1/2" drop to level the car out for looks, Not drastically drop the car by cutting the middle and top of the spring off of a factory spring..
