yes they will wear out other suspension components faster. eibach or any other "lowering spring" would be a much better choice because of the spring rates involved versus just cutting a stock spring. first off emergency handeling will drastically drop from stock when cutting stock springs (something i would not want on my daughters car) and the choice of an official lowering or sport spring can only help. basically any time you lower a car it is smart to go ahead and get the proper lowering equipment, cutting the stock springs is never the way. i know people cut the aftermarket springs a little bit, but they have tolerances that can hold up much better and not lose their main purpose; to perform. and yes all the same effects are brought by both parties, however cutting stockers will speed up the process ten fold.
