my car was lowered when i first got it because i added new springs. this past week, i bought new tires (225-40-18) but now the tire is rubbing against the fender because the car is too low. are there any coil over suspension kits available for the 6 or would i have to replace the springs?
 
Your problem has nothing to do with the suspension and everything to do with the wheel choice.

The stock wheel/offset is 17x7 +60. (with 215/50/17). Anything thats considerably off from that like (18x7.5 +40) requires rear fender rolling to prevent rubbing. Excessively off wheels (like 18x8.5 +38) will rub reguardless of modification...even if you cut the inner fenders.

Coilover suspension kits come with their own springs btw. The cheapest one on the market "was" the D2 at 700 USD, I think the price is now hovering around 1100 USD.
