cutting springs arent bad. if you have the tools and precisely cut each spring at the same place you should be fine.. driving with them though is kinda weird though

Disagree. It screws up the spring rate and also messes up the camber causing bad tire wear.

camber wont do anything, its toe you have to worry about. and even if you get 4k dollar springs you will still have to get the toe fixed.
