Fix Rake

[moe30]

So I have an 87 e30. I recently dropped it on Bilstein Sports and Intrax springs. I'm really happy with the height on the front but of course on a DB I have rake... has anyone tried fixing this?

Remove spring pads for some millimeter gain.
Nothing you can do if you stick with that rear spring.

Right now the front has 1 pad and the rear has no pads... I'm thinking I might just have to go gc's eventually. I was just hoping there was something temporary

If you are happy with your front spring/rate, just get a rear 2.25'' diameter, 6'' tall GC Eibach coil/spring from GC and use it with no adjuster.

Looks like this on a late model(16'' wheels):


And like this on an early(early arches + 17'' wheels):
*Yes it's an early model, but with a plastic bumper swap.
