worn out springs

my rear springs have about had it. I was just wondering how much of an improvement new springs would be. The tires are tucked way up under the fender about halfway across the width of the tire. My ride's ok right now, but every little thing in the road is definitely noticeable. Any info is greatly appreciated
Thanks
Derek

You need 'um, the difference is MUCH IMPROVED, if it didn't need them, they wouldn't have been there.

My springs were worn out as well and when I replaced them with 140 pound sprins it was 1000 times better, no more bottoming out, the body roll was greatly improved, and the car handeled great.
