spring question
ok i bought the car with lowering springs on it and i dont like it the rear end looks like it sits lower than the front.
I was wondering if anyone knows what would happen if i put moog variable rate on the back and the lowering on the front. Or is there a way to get the rear end up a little higher
does it look ok or does it look dumb
because if i have even 1 person in the back the tires rub once in a while if i have 2 it rubs every little bump and im scared of a blow out and tires aint cheap

Re: spring question
...I'm guessing Eibach Pro-Kit...they're known for sagging. I bought a new set at one point and they sagged from the start. Replaced them with Strano springs and all was well.
You have a few options to fix it. Rear springs are an EASY swap. Find or order a set of BMR rear springs or Strano springs (hard to find in just the rears), or you can find someone selling their stock springs and then remove the rear isolater and do the "hose mod" which will lower it about 3/4" in the back from the stock height. Look up the rear spring hose mod and you'll see what I'm talking about. You just put some rubber hose around the top coil of the stock springs after you remove the isolater and you'll be set.
Of course the BEST option is to replace all four springs, but you can get away with doing what I mentioned if you want to save the money for now...
