car keeps catching rear arches when ive got two people in the back. its not lowered cos it does nothing but catch when on 40mm, its just on 17" wheels and standard ride height. is there a way of making your suspension harder or tighter so that is can take more weight in the back. plz help, its doing my f**king head in.

Stiffening the suspension will make the ride really uncomfortable i would have thought

change wheels or coil spring fillers which stop your springs from moving.
