ok heres the problem The Bridge is messed up and when I put strings on the strings always ring out and the only way for me to get it to stop is to raise the bridge really high. ive also been messing with the springs
Take it to the guitar shop and have it set up properly. You should not have to raise your bridge at all. Like I said, if everything was fine before you took off the old strings, you need to put the bridge height back exactly where it was. You only need to raise the bridge, or adjust the neck tenon, if you had fret buzzing problems with the old set of strings. If you had no fret buzz,
return it to where it was.
Is the new set of strings a heavier gauge than the old set? If it is, all you need to adjust is the spring tree...not the bridge. If I were you, I'd take it to a Guitar Adjustment Facility, and have the Guitar Adjustment Facility Technician let you watch to get an idea of how to do it yourself. You can also google 'guitar setup/Floyd Rose' to find some good info regarding your situation. I bid you a good evening.
