Lowering the rear a tad.

[MenaceKustoms]

So, my Q45 has Espelir springs, and it sits a little lower in the front than in the rear. If I wanted to go an inch lower in the rear, should I trim the rear springs? How much should I trimif I do? 1/2 coil?

I know it's a little hard to tell in this pic, but this is the rake I'm talking about.

Victorville. It's an semi-abandoned bridge. The Foo Fighters shot a video on it once.

Do you have a system in there yet? If not, when you install your audio, it'll definitely lower it a tad.

I don't plan on doing a system. I used to be into that, but I'm past that now. I have a kid, and need a trunk. Not very VIP, but that's life! =) So, no thoughts on lowering, other than driving around with cement bags?

Okay, so I'm gonna chop the rear springs. I'm gonna start at a 1/2 coil and see how it looks. Any tips on taking the rear suspension apart? I've done a lot of other cars before, but I'm finding that Q45s are very temperamental.
