Mix and Matching SPRING brands for height adjustments.....

Here is the issue and maybe someone can fill me in, I have the eibach sportline springs on the car, Stereo adds a hefty 150 pounds to the rear of the car, with those springs, and it used to do it with stock ones the car is a inch and a half lower in the back. Looks really crappy.....what I wanna know is in the circumstance, has anyone put lower springs in the front and then left somewhat of a stock height on the back. I am thinking of leaving the Eibach's in the front because it looks good and then throwing in the BMR lowering springs in the back hoping it will actually lift the car a little....but with the stereo....really level the damn thing out.......geezz.....anyway..that's the problem, I was thinking I might throw the adjustable Koni's in the back too....make them stiff as hell.......idea's idea's........anyone?

Why not just get the perches that you can adjust the height? Then you'd still use the Eibach springs. That's what a lot of convertible drivers do.
