my car is on cut springs and rides like shit and rubs everything

front is about 2 1/2 inches off the ground with a lip and my exhaust scrapes alot of stuff.... its tucked as much as i can tuck it...

im going to buy springs for my car

i want a little bit higher than it is at the moment and a better ride of course

what should i get for drop rate there like 1.8 1.5 2 inch ect

this might help my cars on 17's

first off you shouldn't have cut your springs. secondly you probably have blown or at least severely damaged the struts and mounts by now. so your best bet is to purchase a cheap set of coilovers.

I didn't cut them the previous owner did

You also need properly sized tires...that contributes to the ride, and the ground clearance.

What are on there (???), they look tiny.
