Cutting bumpstops for GTWorx springs

Read the Stickied spring install instructions and a GTWorx thread about bumpstops, so I'm not sure if cutting them will be necessary for my GTWorx springs. Looks like these springs have reasonable travel before hitting the bumpstops, but it also sounds like cutting them could help prevent understeer in hard cornering and couldn't hurt much otherwise.

Right now my car is a devoted daily driver but I'll be getting a second car eventually and the Evo will see more track duty-- AutoX and some road courses. So cutting the bumpstops isn't immediately necessary (except for clover leafs) but I figure I might as well do it now as long as I'm there.

Don't need to cut.

Right, not needed. Can make a difference though. It's up to you.
