?? Help Car sits to low in rear??

I droped my civic with Eibach sportlines and I have a heavy box with 15's in the trunk and I took them out because it camber and tucked my 17" rims. But I not my subs in and the trunk still sits lower in the rear. I will role my fenders and a camber kit will be put on but is the anything I can do so that I does not sit almost an inch lower in the back?????[IMG]i/expressions/face-icon-small-confused.gif[/IMG]

well the only thing i have to say is that if you have adjustables you could just pop the back up but i am sure you already figured that out. and if you dont i would just say go and buy new ones cause they could have some kind of defect or something.

Send them into Eibach and have them tested to see if they are defective and if they are they will send you a new set if they are found to be defective.

Yeh, it should never sit lower in the rear....most sets will lower your car evenly front and rear or drop the
front a little more than the rear...but I have yet to come across a set that droped the rear more.....I would have them
checked out !! Sorry to hear about that, that sucks !!
