96 camaro need rear spring help

I got a 96 camaro i have eibach pro springs on it but the rear seems to be traveling too much and i got a tire rub. Does anyone know the spring rate of the eibach pro rears so i can see what i can do to get alittle more spring in the rear. I had tried these spring helpers but they poped out in 2 days....

No rubber seat on the axle. Just bare metal.

Do you still have the jounce bumpers in place, and are they in good condition?

Re: 96 camaro need rear spring help

there is no rubber on the bottom on the rear end. Is there supposed to be? I need to get it a little higher to fix the tire rub.

I believe there is a rubber piece on the top of the spring between the body but there isnt one on the bottom between the spring and the rear end housing.
