I have 4 12's in my camaro walled in right. The problem is when i hit any bump, regardless of speed, the back end rubs. What im wanting to do is put something back there to solve the problem. Something stout that wont try to drop the car any lower. That can handle the weight. Any ideas?

Are you saying the back end rubs like you have no bump stops, or the rear suspension bottoms out? Theres a lot you can do. I wouldn't say that the problem is totally in your springs, but in your shocks too. The shocks dampen the force of the bump, but only if they are working properly. The springs help spring the car back up after the bump. A more aggressive spring rate might help in the rear. I have strano's springs in my car on all four, but it lowered the car too so think of that. I forget what the spring rates are on his, but they are nearly double what the factory rear springs are. Just something to think about.
