coilovers for 2008 cayenne

i just lowering my cayenne with eibach lowering kit and i cut it.
So, my tire is just only 3 fingers from the vender. It looks good, but very very stiff and uncomfortable. Anybody know how to solve it? Or i must change to coilovers? thanks..

Cutting springs is a big no-no, especially on such a heavy car. If you want it that low, coilovers are the only way.

+1 on the coilovers. KWv3 and can go as high or low as you want. Probably run about $4000.00 installed

mattjtaylor50 is infamous around these parts

who told you to cut your springs...
i cant believe a shop let you do that
get ready to wear out your shocks, horrible ride, and other suspension damage

+1 with everyone elses recommendation to buy a set of coil overs
