Before performing spring surgery, I would check your present suspension travel to ensure you are not getting into the bump stops or bottoming out shocks during cornering or heavy braking. This should be mandatory as it confirms if the suspension can do its job or not.
Put some paint or something that can transfer color to the top of the bump stop and then go drive the car. Brake and corner somewhat hard but stay safe. When done having fun, go and check the mating surfaces on the control arms checking for witness marks.
It's also the key area that gets those that are into "the stance" as form in trouble rather than trying for function first.
