springs

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?

Where-can-I-find-this-stuff-online.

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.

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.
