Cutting a coil - question

[Mattchu60]

I am thinking of cutting one coil off my springs to get 2" of drop. One question I have - do I need to "flatten" out the coil again after cutting it? The stock coil has the pigtail at the top, and the bottom of the coil is flattened out where it sits in the bottom control arm.

From what I read, it doesnt sound like people are flattening the bottom coil out after cutting one coil off. That sound right? Any issue with doing so? Seems to me that it would put all the pressure on one point of the coil pocket vs spreading it out.

PRobably overthinking this - but let me know what you are all doing - just cutting a coil off and running it without issue, or are you heating it and bending it flat after cutting?
