Ive got 205/50/16 tires (stock suspension) and the back tires rub the wheel well when i get people in the back seat. Annoying as crap, need to fix it now.

A) Will replacement stock springs compensate for sagging from old springs?

B) Are there springs with a stiffer rating that are the same height without lowering issues that would risk strut problems?

well stiffer spring will help. but if your going to replace those replace the struts also.

Koni yellows an GC coil overs are a really good set up. ask Stefan for a price quote.

What offset wheels are you running.

I'm not sure.

Do springs tend to sag over the years? Because without the spacers I just put in to help this problem, the back end definitely sits lower than the front, more so than what I remember being usual.

yes they will and can.
