Agree, any suggestions on raising the rear height while still using the H&R springs?

Either cut a coil off the fronts or change the rear spring pad to #4. The first option will lower the front, the second will raise the rear...either way, gotta do something.

rear looks good when compared to the front...the rake is like OEM...that said, overall a tad too low for me, but it does look good remember lower doesnt = better performance.
