Dont cut springs.

You may be cutting off the variable rate portion of the spring, and thus hurting ride. Also, the spring will be too soft at the new height, and will bottom out more often.

BUY some new H&R or Eibach springs (more expensive ones, see other posts) and be done with it.

Finally, if you do cut the springs, use a cutoff tool. Not a hacksaw (takes forever), or a torch (cause the heat will ruin a psring and make it sag over time).
