just a thought
 

has anyone tried removing the helper springs on ST coilovers to go lower? i know the st weren't meant to go low but what are the risk in doing this? i dont really want to buy new coilovers. thanks...

Likely you will be over-compressing the damper and operating outside the range that is acceptable for the damper. Just a WAG off the top of my head this AM.

I think you bought the wrong coilovers... you should sell them and get the ones you want. Most people that buy the ST Coilovers don't buy them to go very low.
