Suspension Question

This is a non 3rd gen question but maybe one of you guys can help me.My brother has 93 cougar and he wants to put lowering springs on it.The problem hes havin is the outer edge of the tire scrapes when the car hit semi hard bumps.Is there any way that you can limit the amount of travel in the shock so it will stop before the tire hits the fender.Any ideas?
Thank
Anth

That's a spring issue, not the shocks. The shocks only dampen the bumps, not prevent them.

Nice CL Saber wheels, BTW....always liked those.
