Physics check...
When a spring fatigues due to repeated cycling from age or race use, does it lose spring rate?
No, it does not. As long as the thickness of the wire is the same and the diameter of the coils is the same, the spring rate will not change. Springs may sag, but they don't get softer.
If anything, what will happen is that since most stock springs use the spacing of the coils to provide a "progressive" spring rate, the coils that are closer together will "coil bind" and the spring rate will actually go UP. (same effect as cutting a coil)
That's not to say that you won't be bottoming out. Just saying that at no point does your spring rate decrease. Gotta love the black art of suspension tuning!
Put some SHOCKS on the car to control those springs. Just because a shock isn't completely blown out and leaking oil, or it passes the infamous "bounce test", does NOT mean that it is providing sufficient damping for good handling or enough damping to keep the suspension from bottoming out.
