stiffer shocks with ride height

alright so i have the tein stechs on my sedan
since they were designed around the EM2 and not the ES1 the rear sits really low
its fine when im in the car with one passenger but when somone sits in the back the rear sags REAL low and i can tell by the way the car acts. the rear shocks bottom out a lot when somone is sitting in the back too

well my question is that will getting stiffer shocks help me out?

im planning on getting the KYB AGX 4 way adjustable shocks and struts
i hear they take drops real well and sine they are adjustable thats a plus too

Stiffer shocks wont help ride height.. only dampen more. You need springs that raise the height up some.
