Why not keep the upgraded struts and just go back to stock springs?

What is it exactly that you don't like about it being lowered? The ride or the look?

i love the look but im going all out on the motor and it makes it rather hard to get underneath the car when its an inch off the ground lol i mean the thing looks mean as hell dropped but ive never been a huge fan of lowered cars personally

Why not go with some Eibach ProLine Springs? They don't lower the car much at all compared to your current springs and not much more than stock springs.
They just make the handling a little better and get rid of a little wheel gap. I really think you will regret going to stock springs with after market rims, it just looks plain silly.
