Default Coil springs, ride height?

hey guys I have 98 z28. years ago I lowered it with an Eibach kit and I'm getting tired of having to reweld my exhaust. Is there any aftermarket coil springs that offers better handling while keeping the factory ride height? Also would it hurt anything if I just raised the rear of the car back to a factory ride Height and left the front lower.

Factory springs are "ok" for handling at stock height. If you want better handling at stock height look into good shocks (bilstiens, konis etc.) and matching swaybars (32/19 or 35/22mm).

Good shocks on stock springs will do way way more than stiffer stock height springs with the shitty stock shocks.
