Change rear lean with w/Eibach's installed

[mrbtd]

This summer I installed Eibachs springs on my daughters 2008 A/C while I was at it I replaced all struts and shocks. Car drives great and has been problem free.

The one thing I would like to do is raise the rear of the car back up because of the way it leans back. I am thinking I should put the stock springs back in the rear to get the stance I want. Are there any safety concerns with unmatched spring rates ? Is there a different/better way to raise the rear end some ?

The proper way would be to buy adjustable coilovers and set it to the height you like. But if that's not an option then stick to springs. I don't see any problems with running stock spring rears and eibach fronts, it's been done before.

Can you post a pic of how the car sits right? It can't be that low in the rear, eibach is like a 1.5" drop.

Just replace the lowering springs with coilovers....putting stock springs on the back will cause the car to feel unsteady at high speeds and when maneuvering turns and such. Due to the difference in spring rates.

It's surprising that you don't like the stance with eibachs on all four? Can you post pics? Are you sure the springs aren't on backwards?

Sorry for the slow reply here guys. Here is a picture that shows the lean towards the rear. I dont think there were any issues with the install - it was my first time doing suspension work but it was pretty straight forward. Car handles great and no odd noises
