Yup, it'll be too low. I have Eibach Pro-Kit springs on stock wheels and tires, and I scrape going into driveways all the time. With cut coils, it will be way too low.

The messed up thing is the springs are way to short for the stroke of the strut. When he goes over a incline( driveway, speedbump) sideways( all the lowered guys know what i'm talking about). The spring will fall out of the strut & could possibly blow his tire. At the very least scrape the **** out of the tire.
I would have never sold them. The type of springs you can take off the strut without a compressor tool...bad news.
