Recommended coilovers?

I added some drag wheels on the Fit with, IIRC, Nitto tires. They handle well, but the car scrapes over hard bumps. I believe that the wheels are hitting the inner top fender housing, but am not completely sure. So what is everyone using for coilovers? I am looking for something stiffer? Does anyone have any links to magazine articles or something that may give an ideal street set-up, auto-x set up etc? I hope I posted this in the right place Thank for any help offered ladies and gents. Have a good weekend

EnduraTech seems to have the right or close to the right combination of spring rate for the street application. Everybody else is way too stiff. Skunk2 isn't bad, but you have to specify 6k on the front instead of the standard 8k. Their backs come with 6 which are a little stiff still and they have no other options. Endura I believe without looking them up is 5 frt, 3 rr.
Welcome to fit freak by the way.
