I cut 2 rounds out of my coil springs, now the top of my tire leans in and is causing extreme inner tire wear. I've added all the shims it can hold. It helped but not enough. What now?

Lol yep, gotta buy some new springs. If it's got a small block in it, get the Moog replacement big block springs. Cut 1 coil off (1 coil = 2" of drop) and add either 2.5" or 3" drop spindles. That way you get the drop you want and keep the geometry within reason
