So, my 142 needs a set of springs as the ride and handling is just too mushy right now.
From what I have read

I can order standard 5" diameter springs for the car in whatever rate/length I choose. I don't want to dump the car nor do I want it to handle like a dump truck, but the fact that 4 people in the car make the rear tires rub and it feels like damp mashed potatoes is really disappointing. Yes, a little lower stance would be nice.
I am planning on running Bilstein HD's up front and KYB Gas-a-justs in the rear.
I'm leaning towards putting the front springs in the back (do I need to run spacers?) and 9.5" tall 350lb/in springs up front. Anybody have any different/better combination (with or without pictures)?
