Default spring perches/spacers....anyone have a pair to sell me?

Hi guys. I'm looking for some spring perches/spacers to raise the front of my car by one inch. I've gotten tired of hitting speeds bumps and not having better clearance. I think I have Weltmeister springs (red colored springs, 5 inch diameter and 11.25 inch height uncompressed). I got them from Automotion back in 1997 along with yellow koni struts as a set.

Anyone have a pair to sell?

thanks
Jaime

Paragon products has these too, i think.
I was in the same situation as you in 2013, scraped on everything where I lived, put the spacers in, stock height is so much better.
Can fit a jack underneath too

Thanks guys, I'm gonna go this route. Some say I should just get adjustable height springs. However, I remember purchasing my current combo along with hollow rear torsion bars. Had Porsche stealer put them in and index them correctly (PIA!). I'm just gonna adjust the rear up one inch. This way the suspension's matching dynamics are kept.

Thanks for the info. Y'all rock!!
