Default Sport springs without dropping the car, do they exist?

I haven't been able to find any springs, that will improve the firmness, so to speak, of my car, but I don't won't it lower than stock. Does anyone know where I can find some springs like this?

Coil overs. Or, you can buy the springs and use spacers (though for the sually drop springs that drop the car ~1", this wouldn't be a good idea).

Yeah, coilovers would be nice, but I want to keep this car mostly stock. Also, I've used those spring spacers before and will never use them again...

only spring that will frim it up and barely drop it is mach1/bullet springs they give a 3/4" drop all around and firm it up some i have them and they are nice. They are a good bit stiffer the stock GT springs.

increasing rate without dropping the ride height will have some twitchy handling effect. what are you trying to solve? perhaps there's a better solution than dorking your suspension up...

Not trying to solve anything. Just trying to replace with some new springs or something, to replace the worn out 130K miles stockers.
