you could tighten the rear bolts on the ends of the springs, or get shorter bolts if you cant tighten them enough. On the front end you would have to put in shims either under the ends of the springs where they sit in the control arms, or shim in between the spring and the body of the car where the spring bolts up.

If you use this info to fit 26" wheels under a c4, id like to see pics when your done
