ok thats your vew. mine have been through a MOT and many members have removed 1/2 a coil or more to leval the back with the front and also how is the tester to know if they have been cut short? the spring is sat in the rubbers of the housing, just dont go wild with a grinder and make a clean cut.
but if you bothered about cuting a spring and it being classed as broken...why remove the rubber? its there for a reason. at the end of the day bud if you want the car to sit lower buy lowering springs that lower more or buy coilovers....simple
