Smile Which Spring is Better?.

I have a Toyota Celica GTS 2000. Ventus Tires with Rims Rota 16 ". I have problems with the suspension. KBYAgx I shock, springs and Tein S. Tech. But my car is falling too much, and this occasioned rubs on my tires. And changed tires and 2 times in 4 months old. but I only have problems with rear suspension.
which springs are best? S. TechTein or, Vogtland or others? I like my sports car, but hits a lot of tires with the bodywork.

please Help me!

Re: Which Spring is Better?.

try stiffening it up some/increasing the level, worste case scenario, you'll have to get stiffer springs on the back.

Re: Which Spring is Better?.

what do you mean by your "rear wheels are open"? yes, an alignment will help, since lowering would have more than likely changed the amount of camber, and possibly toe as well.
