Default which springs?

when i got my scooby i ordered a set of standard shocks and springs, fitted the shocks but it turned out that the springs were wrong so put the old ones back on, am looking to change them now but would like some advice as to what to get?
my big proplem is i cant lower my scoob as my drive is like a launch pad (big angle slope then flat and i can only just get up without catching the underside as it is so is there such a thing as an uprated spring at standard height or do i need to get standards? either way any company names you can throw my way please.
thanks in advance
neill.

got a noise coming from the rear of the car now that sounds like an old bed, i am guessing its the springs, rang subaru for a price on springs and nearly crapped myself £91 each plus vat! so can anyone help do you know anywhere that does standard springs for reasonable money?
if not can you set coilovers at standard height?
cheers
