Springs/1965 Fastback

I’m pretty sure I have the original front coil and rear leaf springs. I know they have sagged since I’ve purchased the car because the tires have started to rub slightly when I have a passenger and hit a dip in the road. I love the stance of the car, but I think it should sit a little higher. I’m currently running P225/60R15 tires with American Racing Torq Thrust D wheels. I’m not sure the offset. I going the have some suspension work done and I’d like to go ahead and replace the front coil and rear leaf springs as well. I’m not looking for a tight suspension as I do not carve corners with this car. I’m just looking for a decent ride with a little lower stance than stock. Any suggestions would be appreciated.

Just go with basic replacements. You can get tighter springs and poly bushings but beyond that you don't need much. I would get a spindle with a 1" drop built in so you don't need to do the shelby drop.

for me its a racing setup with coilover fronts and top notch leafs with panhard. but like you said you are not carving corners.
