You'll ruin your struts, and be disappointed beyond all belief in the shit you most likely got unless it's a reputable brand (Eibach, etc). If you want to lower it, do it right. Look on focussport.com, or focus-central.com for good lowering kits.

because the springs your gonna be using are smaller then the springs that are made for the struts.

That would be a good route to go if you just want to lower it, but want to retain the comfort.
