Should I replace my rear springs??

I have a 1991 TA convertible with 70,000 miles.

I have been hearing a clunking noise near my shock tower in the rear.

Everything looks tight.

So for maintenance and performance upgrades I am doing the following and have these items on order:

Spohn Panhard Bar and LCA's
Blisten shocks

I was considering changing the springs too, but I don't want to use the aftermarket springs that lower the car. Wouldn't adj. LCA's be needed for springs that lower the car?? I ordered non adj. LCA's

I see that Eibach springs only lower the car 1". Can I use the non adj LCA's with these?

What is actually the benefit of having the springs lowered 1"?

I see that Moog sells stock height springs. Anyone like these???

Thanks.

when lowering the car you will most likely need relocation brackets for traction, u can go with non adj. lca, but maybe an adj panrod
