Currently rubbing bad on the rears when driving on hard dips and driving up inclines, will running a higher spring rate stop this? (What spring rate should I run?) Thanks! 🤙🏻

Jack it up, pull the wheel off see exactly where it’s rubbing. Might just need a little massaging with a mini sledge.
Really clean Corolla. I think these are solid rear axle, which means the lower you go the further forward the axle sits. I’d honestly think about just raising it up until it stops. There aren’t lot of options outside of some serious fabrication. Higher spring rate will just make the car worse to drive and you will most likely still rub.
What is your current spring rate?
Looks like your rear caster is too high, regardless, depending on where it is, just heat it up and massage it in with a hammer – given how bad it sounds like it’s rubbing you should have a nice bare metal spot to show you where to hit lmao
Stiffer springs, smaller tires, more camber, or all of the above. Depending on what the issue really is
