Will stiffer springs help me?

If I want to fix the issue and keep my current setup, not raising it, not buying smaller tires, not getting more camber, will swapping to stiffer springs help?
I have Hipermax IV GT, 265/35 front tires, like 1 finger gap, maxed out dampening on the Hipermax, pretty neutral camber around -1.5degree.

I want to lower my car or maintain current height, not raise.

Running pretty standard TE37 specs, what coilovers are you guys running with TEs and how low is your ride height without any rubbing?
