Compressing springs is a cheap way of doin it but i don't recommend it.

Yes it will stuff up your springs in a way that it will sag alot faster. The spring might even give way to the side if compress incorrectly.

highly not recommended to do that..lowered springs dont really cost that much, also as moo moo nel suggests buying 2nd hand will be even cheaper.
trying to go low baller ur goner end up with more troubles=more costs.
