I wouldnt cut my stock springs to lower the car. You stock springs arent ment to be modified and they cant handle the drop. I would say go with this...

Or this.....

They will run you anywhere from 140 shipped to 170 shipped depending on which ones you choose. And Tein makes some quality products. You wont be dissatisfied. I have the Tein S-Techs on my car and I Love them.

Re: Lowering a RS

you can go to auto zone and buy these things that go over ur springs and u just tighten them down.. 2 come in a pack.. they are like 5 - 10 bucks a pack or something.. they work.. i know a few ppl that have done it .. the ride isn't so hot but if u don't lower it that much i don't think that it will affect the ride to bad?

Re: Lowering a RS

eibach makes really good springs, although they are a little spendy. and if you're looking at adjusting it to your own height, get ground control coilovers and they are too a little spendy, but they ride about 100x better then the cheap aftermarket coiloves, and you dont' get that bouncy effect.
