OK guys, I have a 99' Eclipse GS. I have Eibach lowering spring and a camber-kit on all 4 wheels. The car is about 2 1/2in off the ground in the front and 6 1/2in in the back. Now the problem I have is that when I pull out of my driveway my cat. converter and the bottom of my chaise scrapes the road. I was wondering what would be the easiest way to correct this problem. Would simply upgrading my wheels from 17in to 18in do the trick or should I just buy new springs? If I buy new springs do I have to buy a new camber kit?
 
Get adjustable coilovers. Bigger wheels won't help unless you get bigger tires which will like give you a host of other problems.
 
I used to be a mini trucker...we never had airbags, and out trucks were low enough to get high centered on a wheat thin. So we learned out to hit things at angles ect. Practice driving better
