Default Rear springs for my Saff?

Need some new rears on my RWD Saff I reckon, sits lower at the back than the front, camber is all to shit and speed bumps are impossible.

Any recommendations?

Edit: It's on Bilsteins, poly bushed everywhere and some dodgy R&B shims too.

Decent coilovers mate, then you can adjust it to how you want it

Certainly am mate, though the weather is making me realise that I am slightly mental for doing so.

Think i'll borrow a green suit from work, and some wellies.

Don't really want to go to the expense of coilovers, nowt wrong with the front end TBH, just want the back lifting slightly.

Bump as I'd like to know this as well!

How about the Ahmed Leda springs? These any good? What are the alternatives?

I'd ideally like standard height or near to, but stiffer for track etc.

Speak to Mike Rainbird, I can confirm these springs are brilliant and THE only spring IMO
